Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick has nominated Roderick Ireland, a Springfield native, to be the next chief justice of the state's Supreme Judicial Court. If confirmed, he would be the first African-American to lead the state's highest court. He would succeed Margaret Marshall, who is stepping down to spend time with her ailing husband. WFCR's Bob Paquette reports Ireland's nomination now goes to the Governor's Council.
