The county presiding judge and the chief judge in each district can't be expected to know all the financial dealings of every judge in their jurisdictions. It's up to the individual county judges to follow ethical standards. Ziegler knew she had a financial interest in cases she was deciding, yet she ruled on them anyway and then denied any conflicts until she was outed. As to your questions, ray53511, even if presiding and chief justices should have know what she was up to, that doesn't remove her responsibility to conduct herself ethically. The bottom line is she is incapable of operating ethically as a county judge, therefore she's certainly unqualified to sit on the highest court in the state.
