Leon Circuit Judge N. Sanders Sauls, 59, grew up in Monticello in Jefferson County, where his mother was tax collector and his father a clerk of the circuit court.
A Democrat, Sauls got his law degree from the University of Florida in 1966. He worked as an assistant state attorney in 1968, as a partner in the old-line firm of Pennington, Wilkinson and Sauls, and as a federal bankruptcy judge from 1978-86 before returning to private practice.
Gov. Bob Martinez, a Republican, appointed Sauls to the bench in 1989. He was picked to hear the Gore contest in a random computer selection of the four trial judges in the state's 2nd Judicial Circuit.
