Judge Finkle was appointed to the King County Superior Court in December 1989 and served until October 1999. Before taking the bench, Judge Finkle was a partner in Burns Schneiderman Finkle, Deputy Director of the Seattle-King County Public Defender, an associate at Preston Thorgrimson, and law clerk to the Hon.

Judge Finkle has served as Special Master in dozens of state and federal cases, has consulted in litigation, and has supervised elections. While a member of the Superior Court bench, Judge Finkle’s diverse trial docket included State v.
