After years of remarkable stability, the Indiana Supreme Court experienced a sea change in 2012. For the first time in forty-five years, two new justices took to the bench during the same calendar year. Justice Mark Massa was sworn in on April 2, 2012, replacing former Chief Justice Randall Shepard. Justice Loretta Rush was sworn in on November 7, 2012, replacing Justice Frank Sullivan. In addition, Justice Brent Dickson became chief justice on May 15, 2012. This marks the first time that the Indiana Supreme Court gained two new justices and a new chief justice within the same year in the forty-one years since a constitutional amendment created the modern office of chief justice.1 In the nearly 200 years of the court’s existence, the court has had two or more new justices take the bench in the same year on only nineteen prior occasions.2 Combined with Justice Stephen David’s appointment in October 2010, both a majority of the court and the chief justice’s chair have changed hands in a little more than two years. By contrast, the court that preceded these changes—which was headed by retired Chief Justice Shepard and consisted of Justices Boehm, Sullivan, Rucker and Dickson—sat together for eleven years, the longest of any panel of five justices in the history of the court. This type of rapid, unprecedented turnover naturally raises questions about the nature and direction of the new court.
