Altice, the first appellate court appointee selected by Gov. Mike Pence, took the oath in a private ceremony in the Court of Appeals courtroom. He was accompanied by his wife, Kristin, and spoke briefly afterward to his new colleagues and staff. He succeeds Judge Ezra H. Friedlander, who has retired.
