Mo. R. Gov. Bar Jud. 10.27
As amended through October 1, 2024
Each commission shall select the three best qualified nominees. Accordingly, the commission should not limit its consideration to persons who have been suggested by others or to persons who have indicated their willingness to serve. The commission may, if it sees fit to do so, tender nomination to one or more qualified persons, prior to, and subject to, the formal action by the commission in making its nominations, in order to ascertain whether such a person will agree to serve if nominated.
