Judicial career
District of Arizona
On the recommendation of Arizona U.S. Senators Jon Kyl and John McCain, Campbell was nominated to the United States District Court for the District of Arizona by President George W. Bush on March 13, 2003 to a new seat created by 116 Stat. 1758, which was approved by Congress. Campbell was confirmed by the Senate on July 8, 2003 on a Senate vote and received commission on July 15, 2003.[2] [3]
Notable cases
Petland puppy mill case
| United States District Court for the District of Arizona *Martinelli et al. v. PETLAND, INC. and Hunte Corporation No. CV-09-529-PHX-DGC |
|---|
| Judge Campbell dismissed a lawsuit against Hunte Corporation on February 3, 2010, after six pet owners alleged that Petland Stores who sold the puppies distributed by Hunte came from puppy mills. The judge dismissed the case over finding that the plaintiffs in the case failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Hunte engaged in illegal conduct. The case was part of a series of cases filed by the Humane Society of the United States.[4] |
Alleged sham Green Party candidates
| United States District Court for the District of Arizona *Arizona Green Party et al. vs. Ken Bennett et al. 2:10-cv-01902-DGC |
|---|
| In September 2010, the Green Party requested that the names of nine candidates not endorsed by the party be removed from the general election ballots in Arizona. The lawyer for the Green Party alleged that the candidates were recruited by Republicans to restrict the number of votes that could have potentially gone to Democrats. As evidence, he presented that the public positions of the candidates are contrary to the policies supported by the party he represents. Judge Campbell ruled that removing the candidates from the ballot would not be fair to the candidates before a full hearing on the merits of the case occurs. This, in effect, allows counties in the state to begin printing its ballots as planned. [5] |
