The races for Little Rock traffic court judge and a state Court of Appeals judge representing the capital city have just become contested with announcements from two new candidates. Sixth Judicial Circuit Judge Herb Wright said he will run for traffic court after 14 years on the circuit bench that encompasses Perry and Pulaski counties. Little Rock attorney Pam Hathaway, a lawyer for 30 years, said she'll seek the appellate court judgeship coming open with next year's retirement of Rita Gruber. Judicial election season began two weeks ago, with the elections timed to coincide with the state's political primaries.
