The Larger Pattern
Miller is one of 9 judges across 4 Wayne County courts with documented connections to the Banks charter school network:
| Court | Connected Judges | Capture Ratio |
|---|---|---|
| 3rd Circuit (Miller’s court) | Miller (Civil), Ramsey (Criminal), Al. Sabree (Family) | 3 of 52 |
| 36th District | Yancey, Adam Sabree, Sean Perkins | 3 of 23 (13%) |
| Probate | David Perkins (Chief Judge Pro Tem) | 1 of 4 (25%) |

When judges have documented connections to the people whose cases they may hear, the court system cannot function independently.

What to Look For
When evaluating any judicial candidate, check:
- Board memberships — Is the judge on the board of any entity connected to litigants? (Miller: Board Chair of Banks’ foundation)
- Campaign contributions — Who funded the campaign? (Banks Strategy LLC → Miller)
- Family connections — Do family members have business relationships with litigants? (Miller’s husband’s arrest in Banks’ vehicle)
- Professional overlap — Did the judge attend school with, work with, or serve alongside litigants? (Baker College → Miller + Banks)
