Joseph Chair, Committee on Rules and Judiciary 36" Legislature of the Virgin Islands Re: Confirmation Hearing for Pedro K. Williams, Esq. — Nominee for Judge, Superior Court of the Virgin Islands (St. Thomas-St. John Division) Dear Senator Joseph and Honorable Members of the Committee, I write this letter in support of Attorney Pedro K. Williams for confirmation by the Legislature and appointment to the vacant judgeship position for the Virgin Islands Superior Court, Division of St. Thomas — St. John. I have had the pleasure of working with Attorney Williams over the past few years on various legal matters and can attest to his candor, character, and legal acumen. I have no doubt that Attorney Williams will be a valuable addition to the bench and is the most deserving of the nomination and subsequent confirmation. The Virgin Islands as a whole will greatly benefit from his appointment, and I strongly believe that he will act as a strong, steadfast steward to the Court and the legal community. Accordingly, I respectfully request that the Committee give full and favorable consideration to his nomination and advance his confirmation. Kjaer regards, / TANNER J.
