A note for our "Perils of an Elected Judiciary" file: Manhattan Surrogate-Elect Arrested on Campaign Finance Charges. Surrogate's Court-- New York's probate court, although it has slightly broader jurisdiction, is a system for spreading graft, so all that is really surprising about this is that Ms. Anderson was clumsy enough to get caught. Usually you get the graft later, but the New York Surrogate's race has gotten so expensive lately.
