Do they matter if one desires to work part-time as a judge?
Also, what is the process to become a judge?
Thanks.

The process goes like this. Find somewhere that elects judges. Get close to the dominant political party. Have them nominate you and fund your campaign.

You don't need to be a lawyer to run for municipal courts in other states too.
