WILKES-BARRE, LUZERNE COUNTY- Luzerne County President Judge Chester Muroski wants former Judge Mark Ciaverella's seat on the Primary Election ballot.
Judge Muroski sent governor Ed Rendell a letter Friday. The request comes after former Judge Ann Lokuta's seat was taken off the ballot last week. The position was withdrawn pending her appeal of the ruling that removed her from office.
Ciavarella's resignation came too late for his seat to be placed on the ballot. Judge Muroski made the request given the unusual circumstances in Luzerne County.
