Abstract
A study done in 1964 of lawyers practicing in Kansas City and St. Louis, Missouri, found that those with high social status in the legal profession, representing the most prestigeful clients, are more likely to support a Nonpartisan Court Plan developed by leaders of the bar for selecting judges than are attorneys with lesser professional status who handle the legal affairs of lower social classes. Partisan affiliation was shown to habe a limited effect on preferences concerning judicial selection. Attorneys with extensive trial experience are less favorable to the pla than those in similar practice specialties without such experience.
