Mobile County Circuit Judge Edmond Naman has been suspended from the bench after being charged with an ethics violation after he allegedly appointed his brother-in-law to handle a number of juvenile court indigent cases over an 11-year period.
Naman was charged with violating the Alabama Canons of Judicial Ethics by the Alabama Judicial Inquiry Commission on Monday. Under state law, judges are automatically suspended with pay from the bench while the charge is pending before the Alabama Court of the Judiciary. The commission and Naman have requested an expedited hearing.The nine-member Alabama Court of the Judiciary has the power to discipline or remove a judge from the bench after a trial.
The brother-in-law received “substantial compensation” as a result, according to the complaint. The document did not specify an amount.
