Judge righteously between each man and his brother, and the stranger who is with them. Show no favoritism, but hear the small as well as the great. Do not fear the face of man in judgment.

About Rich Anderson's Experience and Judicial Philosopy
The Experienced Candidate
Rich is an attorney with a quarter-century of appeals experience, and is in his eighteenth year as an appeals prosecutor with the Alabama Attorney General’s Office. Rich has dedicated his career to fighting in the appellate courts for the justice that Alabama crime victims deserve. Rich’s work for the people of Alabama has taken him from courtrooms all across Alabama to Federal District Courts and the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals. He's even carried the fight to the United States Supreme Court. Every step of the way, Rich has worked to make sure that the victims in those cases were listened to, were kept informed, and that the appellate courts never forgot that a victim’s interest in a case doesn’t end when the verdict comes down.
Judicial Philosophy
Rich’s conservative judicial philosophy finds its roots in the instructions that Moses gave to judges when he set up the Israelites’ judicial system. Judges are commanded to judge righteously, to show no favoritism, and to judge without fearing the face of man. Rich will strive everyday to follow those Commandments as he applies an originalist constitutional approach, judging every case on the law and the facts – but without ever losing sight of the common sense that a good opinion must be anchored to. Rich believes that the rights secured by the Constitution, including the right to be armed, are a vital part of what has made our nation great, and judges must respect those rights.
