Indicates Matter Stricken
Indicates New Matter

The House assembled at 9:30 A.M.

Deliberations were opened with prayer by the Chaplain of the House of Representatives, the Rev. Dr. Alton C. Clark as follows:

Lord of all life, teach us to work as though everything depended upon us and to possess a faith as though everything depended upon God. Save us from making the same mistakes over and over again, from yielding to the same temptations time after time, from doing things that should be left undone until a habit is fixed we cannot break. Enable us to put character and duty above convenience and pleasure. Help us to grow in Your likeness, to shed all faults, and to gain new virtues. Be present with us every hour of this day so that, when evening comes, we may enjoy the deep contentment of work completed and duty done.

Amen.

Pursuant to Rule 6.3, the House of Representatives was led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America by the SPEAKER.

After corrections to the Journal of the proceedings of yesterday, the SPEAKER ordered it confirmed.

REPORT RECEIVED

The following was received.
TO:     The Clerk of the Senate

The Clerk of the House

FROM:     Thomas E. Smith, Jr.

Chairman, Judicial Screening

Committee

DATE:     March 16, 1987

In compliance with the provisions of Act 119 of 1975, it is respectfully requested that the following information be printed in the Journals of the Senate and the House.

Respectfully submitted,

Thomas E. Smith, Jr.

Chairman

/s/ Senator John A. Martin
/s/ Senator Isadore E. Lourie
/s/ Senator Glenn F. McConnell
/s/ Representative James M. Arthur
/s/ Representative Larry E. Gentry
/s/ Representative D. Malloy McEachin, Jr.
/s/ Representative John I. Rogers, III

Pursuant to Act 119 of 1975, this Committee was convened to consider the qualifications of candidates seeking to fill certain Judicial positions.

The Judicial Screening Committee is charged by law to consider the qualifications of candidates for the Judiciary. When notice is received that an individual intends to seek election or reelection to the Bench, the Committee conducts such investigation of the candidate as it deems appropriate and reports its Findings to the General Assembly prior to the election. It is not the function of the Committee to recommend one candidate over another or to suggest to the individual legislator for whom to vote. Our role is instead that of determining whether a candidate is qualified to sit as a Judge and under the statute our determination in that regard is not binding upon the General Assembly.

The following Court of Appeals Judges are running for reelection to their respective seats and are unopposed:

Honorable John P. Gardner Seat #1

Honorable Curtis G. Shaw Seat #2

Having completed the investigation as required by the Act, the Committee, by this Report, respectfully submits its Findings to the members of the General Assembly for their consideration.

The Report consists of the Transcript of the Proceedings before the Screening Committee held at the State House on February 26, 1987, and the portions of the documents submitted by the respective candidates which were made part of the public record. Each candidate filed an extensive Personal Data Questionnaire, a Statement of Economic Interests, five letters of reference including one from the candidate's banker, and the report of a background investigation by SLED. Those documents may be viewed in the office of Thomas E. Smith, Jr., Chairman, of the Judicial Screening Committee in 402 Gressette Building until the date and time of the election.

The candidates were present at the screening and testified under oath.

HEARING OF FEBRUARY 26, 1987

Senator Smith: This Screening Committee is convened pursuant to Act 119 of 1975 requiring a review of candidates for judicial office.

The function of this Committee is not to choose between candidates but rather to declare whether or not the candidates who offer for positions on the bench are in our judgment qualified to fill that position.

The inquiry which we make is a thorough one. It involves a complete professional and background check on every candidate. The candidate is investigated by the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division, including records in the various Courthouses. A Statement of Economic Interest is required; we receive a credit report. We receive a report from the Board of Commissioners on Grievances and Discipline with respect to attorneys and judges who are offering, and from the Board of Commissioners on Judicial Standards with respect to sitting judges.

The candidate's Personal Data Questionnaire details his personal history, health, and professional experience and contains five letters of reference.

We are here today for the purpose of examining candidates for two vacancies on the Court of Appeals. The public notice of the vacancy was given and no candidate has come forward other than the Honorable John P. Gardner for Seat Number One on the Court of Appeals, and the Honorable Curtis G. Shaw for Seat Number Two on the Court of Appeals. No citizen has asked to be heard with respect to either of these gentlemen, so I now ask Judge Gardner to come forward. If you would raise your hand and take the oath.

John P. Gardner, candidate for Seat Number One on the Court of Appeals, was duly sworn by Senator Smith.

Senator Smith: I might say for the record also that these terms are for six-year terms which begin July 1, 1987, and run through June 30, 1993.

EXAMINATION BY

SENATOR SMITH:
Q     Judge, you have seen the Personal Data Questionnaire Summary that was prepared by my office?
A     Yes, I've read it.
Q     It's correct; is there anything in there that needs clarification?
A     Only one thing. I joined the Baptist Church. My present wife is a Baptist.
Q     A Baptist church here in Columbia?
A     Yes, sir.
Q     You have moved your residence since you were last screened, or not?
A     I believe I was living in Columbia two years ago, Senator. After Lucylee's death I remarried and moved up here, and we live on Senate Street.
Senator Smith: I might say to Mr. Gentry, the new member of the Committee, what we do is we take the summary of their personal data, which is prepared. And in order to eliminate printing, we eliminate the questions and sort of summarize the answers to go in the journal to save printing.
Q     Judge Gardner, is there any objection to making our summary a part of the record as if it were your sworn testimony?
A     None whatsoever.

PERSONAL DATA QUESTIONNAIRE SUMMARY

1.     John Pickens Gardner

Home Address:     Business Address:

Heritage     P. O. Box 11629

1829 Senate Street,     Columbia, SC

Unit 1A Columbia, SC     29211

29201

2.     Born in Darlington, S.C. on July 18, 1923

Social Security Number: ***-**-*****

4.     He is married to the former Jeanette Todd Johnson. He has 2 children from his first marriage to Lucylee Arthur (now deceased), Harriet Arthur Gardner and John P. Gardner, Jr.

5.     Military Service: United States Army Air Force from January 28, 1943 to June 25, 1945. Serial No. was 34644364. He was a Staff Sergeant and received an Honorable Discharge.

6.     He attended Wofford College, 1940-1941 (transferred to USC); University of South Carolina, September, 1941 to January, 1943 (entered the U.S. Army); Emory University Law School, September, 1945 to June, 1947. He passed the S.C. Bar Examination and transferred to the University of South Carolina School of Law in June, 1947, from which he graduated in January, 1948.

8.     Legal Experience since graduation from law school:

When he graduated from law school, he practiced with his father from January, 1948 to March, 1955. He practiced law as an individual until he and his son formed a firm in January, 1976. He remained with his law practice until he became a Judge on the South Carolina Court of Appeals in September, 1983.

15.     Judicial Office: Appeals Court Judge, 1983-present

16.     Public Office: Elected to S.C. House of Representatives from Darlington County in 1958 and served 4 terms

20.     He has never been arrested, but as attorney for Dr. K.G. Lawrence he prosecuted Ervin and Freddie Cutter for extortion. The Cutters, when they were arrested, swore out a counter-warrant against him which was almost immediately quashed by Magistrate Thomas Rogers, Florence, South Carolina, on the grounds that act complained of violated no law. Cutters were convicted and sentenced to ten years.

23.     Suits: In his capacity as Trustee for the American Bible Society and L.A. McCall, Jr., he and L.A. McCall, Jr. brought a foreclosure action against J.B. Perry and R. Trippett Boineau. Perry then brought an action against L.A. McCall and Judge Gardner, which action was dismissed by Demurrer on the grounds that complaint failed to state a cause of action. Also, Fred Hopkins, who has been recently imprisoned and disbarred, sued the Judge and his son, alleging misconduct on their part in discharging him as an associate. The allegations of the complaint were untrue, and their insurance company settled the suit on a nuisance basis.

Judge Gardner, his grandchildren and children own as co-tenants property situated in Darlington, South Carolina and leased to Hardees Food Systems, Inc. A boundary line dispute involving this property developed. The family, which includes Judge Gardner, brought a suit to settle the boundary line dispute against Mrs. Margaret Mozingo and Aladden Mozingo. The trial court established the boundary line to be that contended by the Gardner family; this case is now on appeal.

In 1979 T.G. Gamble, a registered surveyor, compiled a map for Billy Graham who had applied for a $3 million farm loan to John Hancock Insurance Co., whom Judge Gardner represented. The loan was not consummated. Billy Graham refused to pay T.G. Gamble for his work and Judge Gardner, at that time, offered him $600 for his services because he took the position that he had guaranteed payment for Billy Graham. Nearly 6 years later, in 1985, Gamble alleged that Judge Gardner owed him $2,500 for the Billy Graham plat. He brought suit but almost immediately accepted the $600 which he offered him in 1979 and which, in Judge Gardner's opinion, was the most that he could have owed him; the suit was then dismissed.

24.     His son brought a lawsuit out of which three complaints were made against he and his father to the Ethics Committee. All were summarily dismissed after investigation.

25.     He recently experienced some heart arrhythmia, but upon a change of medicine this non-disabling condition seems to be under control. He is now treated by Dr. J. Frank Martin located at 1640 St. Julian Place in Columbia and by Dr. Lanneau Lide, Jr., located at 2601 Laurel Street in Columbia.

26.     During the period of his former wife's illness, he was hospitalized several times for a pinched nerve of the cervical spine and operated on for rectal fissures. He has also been hospitalized for heart arrhythmia by Dr. John A. Gastright of Florence, S.C. (no longer in private practice).

27.     He wears glasses which correct his vision to 20/20.

32.     Civic, charitable, religious, educational, social, and fraternal organizations: American Legion, V.F.W.; Masonic Lodge; St. Matthew's Episcopal Church

Q     Judge, your credit is reported as satisfactory. The records of all the applicable law enforcement agencies are negative. The records of the South Carolina Department of Highways and Public Transportation are negative. The Judgment Rolls of Richland County are negative, and also of Darlington County from earlier screenings. Judge, the Board of Commissioners on Judicial Standards has administered no sanctions and there are no investigations pending. The Board of Commissioners of Grievances and Discipline report that as an attorney there were no complaints or charges of any kind filed against you. Your Statement of Economic Interest indicates no conflicting ownerships, associations, or transactions.

Judge, I feel compelled to ask you to speak a little bit. You have indicated that you have experienced some heart arrhythmia.
A     Yes.
Q     The same as me, I might add. You apparently are under medication?
A     Yes, sir, and I think it's under control. I take a workout every morning for about half an hour to an hour, and I don't have any angina and never have had. As you know, Senator, the arrhythmia is due to a timing mechanism. My arteries are clean, they say, as a thirty-year-old man.
Q     Judge, you indicate you were hospitalized for the arrhythmia by Dr. Gastright in Florence. When was that, roughly?

A     That was 1984, the fall of '84. That's when the thing first developed, Senator.
Q     What do you take for that?
A     I take Tenormin, Isoptin, and Capoten. I take just a half dose of Tenormin.
Q     Judge, those are my only questions. We'd be glad if you'd care to make a statement at this time.
A     I don't care to make a statement. I appreciate you fine people attending this thing and being with us, and all the support that you and the General Assembly have given us.
Q     Thank you, sir. Are there any questions from any members of the committee? Have you had an opportunity to review the file?

(OFF THE RECORD)

Senator Lourie: I move that this part of the hearing be closed, Your Honor.
Q     Thank you, Judge.
A     Thank you, Senator.

Senator Smith: We will interview Judge Shaw and then we will go into our normal session to discuss our findings.

Curtis G. Shaw, candidate for Seat Number Two on the Court of Appeals, was duly sworn by Senator Smith.

Q     Judge Shaw, your credit is reported as satisfactory, and I might add that that is as high as they'll give anybody, a satisfactory. The records of the appropriate law enforcement agencies are negative, as are the records of the South Carolina Department of Highways and Public Transportation. The judgment rolls of Greenwood County are negative, and the Board of Commissioners on Judicial Standards advise us that they have administered no sanctions and there are no investigations pending. The Board of Commissioners on Grievances and Discipline report that as an attorney no complaints or charges of any kind have ever been filed against you. Your Statement of Economic Interest indicates no conflicting ownerships, associations, or transactions.

Judge, I wonder if you would have any statement to make at this time?
A     No, sir, not at all.
Q     We appreciate your service on the Court of Appeals.
A     Thank you very much.
Q     You, and Judge Gardner also. Judge, I asked you earlier before the hearing, and I don't know whether you want to comment or if we Just want to think about it. With the change apparently in the Federal situation and the recent Attorney General's opinion, which, by the way, members of the Committee, is in your packet. Some of you have read it; some of you have not. Also included in there is a copy of an editorial concerning age of Judges and retirement. How is the best way to deal with the problem since we no longer have a mandatory statutory retirement age?
A     As I view it, Senator, it will be on a case-by-case basis. If for some reason I would stay on past the mandatory age and if someone would detect some weakness or change in behavior, I think I should be willing to submit to my own doctors first, to detect any deterioration of my thinking ability. I think something along those lines. I think the Federal law that was passed is a welcome one; however, it's going to create some problems along the lines that you've just mentioned. But I would not hesitate to submit to anything. That would be twenty years from now, but I think you might be faced with that in the next few years.
Q     I didn't really just pick on you to ask you that, and I didn't leave Judge Gardner out. I just failed to ask him the same question; I wasn't picking on anybody. Is there a mechanism within the Court itself? Would the Chief Justice have the authority to if not remove someone for age--if you know; I don't.

A     Senator, fortunately, there have been few incidents of alcoholism where the Chief Justice has been forced to say, "You take a few months off to dry out." So I think he does have the power, the overall power, to suspend a judge for cause. Cause covers a lot of territory. For instance, someone might have an operation and be subjected to high medication that might affect his thinking, and I think the Chief Justice would have the power to say, "You get through your medication process and then you can come back on the bench." But I think he is the overall supervisor of the South Carolina Judiciary, and his power controls that.
Q     It's something that this committee is probably going to be interested in discussing later and we will obviously get the best thinking we can on the subject. Thank you, Judge. That's all the questions I have. Do other members of the committee have any questions?

Representative Gentry: No, Mr. Chairman.
Q     Thank you, Judge.
A     Thank you.

Senator Smith: I'm going to suggest that we go into executive session.

STATEMENT BY REP. J. HARRIS

On motion of Rep. KLAPMAN, with unanimous consent, Rep. J. HARRIS's remarks were ordered printed in the Journal as follows:

Today is Mental Retardation Awareness Day here at the State House. It is a special day for us and for the people with Mental Retardation who are here to share with us their talents and job responsibilities.

"Make The Difference For People With Mental Retardation" is the theme for Mental Retardation Awareness Month which is March and the 20th Anniversary of the Department of Mental Retardation. As leaders in the State and our communities, we can help make the difference. We can be supportive of community programs which allow people with mental retardation to have full productive lives.

The South Carolina Department of Mental Retardation has been providing services for people with mental retardation since 1967. They were the first separate state agency in the country to provide services for people with mental retardation. Today they serve over 13,000 people each year. Through a network of providers, services are offered locally to people with mental retardation which allow them to remain in their home community.

With the continued growth of county mental retardation boards, the responsibility for local program development will be with local people. Currently there are 35 boards in the state serving 40 counties. By the end of this fiscal year, the department hopes to have county boards in all counties.

Twenty years ago people with mental retardation were in residential facilities with few alternatives for community living. Today people with mental retardation are living in community residences or apartments. They have jobs. They are productive citizens and an important constituency. The four residential facilities operated by the Department of Mental Retardation continue to serve the severe, profound and multiply-handicapped person with mental retardation.

Expo 87 is an excellent opportunity for you to see the variety of contracts being done by people with mental retardation. I urge you to take the time to visit these programs and see what South Carolina, the S.C. Human Service Providers and you are doing to make the difference for people with mental retardation.

The baskets on your desks are a gift from our guests today.

There are photographers available at Expo 87 to provide you with publicity in your hometown media.

Also take the time to view the art exhibit here between the House and Senate Chambers. This exhibit is part of an art competition commemorating the 20th anniversary of DMR.

Please take time to see how we are making the difference for people with mental retardation and pledge now to continue to make the difference.
