on any of the collective employees against the will of the majority of the Court. It seems
pretty unlikely he would do this, but the safeguard has been built in.
if, because the President Judge is in trial or for any other reason, he wishes to
send another member of the Court, he may do so. Frequently, another judge will be more
familiar with the immediate problem at hand and so will be the one to come, but it will be in
order for the Chairman of the Salary Board to ascertain for the record on each occasion that
the judge appearing is appearing at the request of the President Judge and that he is there
"for" the Court.

Acting Chief Clerk Whalen read the following letter dated June 21, 1973, from
Honorable Judge Paul A. Simmons which is to be made a part of the record:
Dear Mr. Flynn:
Without prior consultation and without my consent, and contraryf
to my wishes, Judge Sweet, Judge DiSalle, and Judge Gladden signed a
letter on June 4, 1973, indicating that the President Judge was going to
appear on my behalf in instances when employees who work in my office
are up for discussion before the Salary Board.
I am here to say in no uncertain terms that none of these judges
are speaking for me at any Salary Board meeting which involves my
Court Crier, Tipstaff, Secretarial Help or Audit Clerk. All of these
jobs are within my jurisdiction as Presiding Judge of the Orphans'
Court and I will appear for them in any matter appertaining to them.
In addition, any employees that are to be hired in the above -mentioned
categories will be appointed by me without the consent or prior consul-
tation with Judge Sweet, Judge DiSalle, Judge Gladden or Judge Curran.
In Judge Sweet's letter of June 4, 1973, he cites many sections
of Purdon's Statutes, but it is conspicuous that he has failed to cite 16
P. S. Sec. 1625, subsection (c) which gives me the right to act for my
employees as above specified. Within the very near future, I intend to
appoint a Tipstaff and a Clerk -typist and I will be very happy to sit with
the Salary Board at its convenience at the appropriate time. The employees
who are presently working with me are completely satisfactory and I
have no reason to come before the Salary Board in regard to them at
this time.
Although 1 did not receive a copy of the above referred to letter
of June 4th, I am nonetheless sending a copy of this letter to all the judges
here in the Washington County Courthouse.
Very truly yours,
I s / Paul_ A. Simmons
