Assistant Municipal Judge

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Let's parse the posting. POSITION TITLE: Assistant Municipal Judge (Hourly) – not heading. REQUISITION #: req8627 – drop. DEPARTMENT: Municipal Court – maybe metadata; could be part of short p? Not required but could be included as metadata. The instruction: "fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." So we could include a short p with department and location maybe. LOCATION: 215 OFFICE BLDG – metadata. BENEFIT CATEGORY: Variable Hourly – maybe part of Benefits? Not specific benefit details. EMPLOYMENT TYPE: Part-Time Hourly – metadata. HOURLY RATE: $110.00 per hour – Pay section. SELECTION PROCESS: Application deadline ... – that's application instructions; we should remove. Then "Job Summary" paragraph. Then "Judicial Duties" – that's responsibilities. Then "City Competencies" – maybe skills/competencies. Then "Capabilities" – maybe skills. Then "Qualifications" – qualifications. Then some statements about accommodations, marijuana policy, EEO, etc – remove boilerplate. We need sections: About the role (maybe job summary), Responsibilities (judicial duties), Requirements (maybe qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe separate?), Skills (city competencies + capabilities), Benefits (maybe not present; benefit category variable hourly not specific; we should not create Benefits unless posting actually states them. It only says "BENEFIT CATEGORY: Variable Hourly" which is not a benefit description. So we should not create Benefits section. Pay: we have hourly rate $110.00 per hour -> include Pay section. Schedule: not specified; we should not create Schedule. Thus sections: About the role (job summary), Responsibilities (judicial duties), Qualifications (maybe combine requirements and qualifications?), Skills (city competencies + capabilities). Could also have Requirements separate if distinct. The posting has "Qualifications" section with specific requirements: Juris Doctorate, license, 5 years experience, knowledge etc. That's qualifications. There's also maybe "Requirements" not separate. So we can have Qualifications section. We need to preserve all substantive info; we must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include the details from job summary, judicial duties, city competencies, capabilities, qualifications exactly as given (maybe as paragraphs or list). Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use

  . So we need to decide which parts are lists. Job Summary: multiple sentences; could be a

  . Judicial Duties: a paragraph with many sentences; could be a

  but contains many duties separated by periods; could be turned into list items? The instruction: Use

  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The judicial duties are a list of duties; we could split into
  • items. However we must preserve all substantive info; splitting into list items is okay as long as we keep the content. The original text: "Conducts hearings/trials in an efficient and appropriate manner. Advise defendants of their rights, administers oath and affirmations, rule on admissibility of evidence and methods of conducting testimony, examines evidence and interprets applicable law, enforces orders, rules, and judgments in compliance with all applicable law.Imposes fines and sentences upon finding of guilty/liable or responsibility according to City Code, and state and federal law. Designs and implements appropriate and creative penalties. Enforces penalties consistently, according to City Code and Charter as well as state law.Protects and preserves the court record to ensure that the City and defendants have a record on which to appeal, if necessary." We could make each sentence a
  • . That seems appropriate. City Competencies: list of bullet-like sentences; could be
    • . Capabilities: also list. Qualifications: list of requirements; could be
      • . Pay: we have hourly rate; could be

        maybe. We also need About the role section: maybe

        About the role

        then

        job summary. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading; fine. We need to include minor metadata like department, location, employment type maybe in a short

        before sections? The instruction: fold minor metadata into a short

        or drop it. We could include a

        with "Department: Municipal Court. Location: 215 Office Bldg. Employment Type: Part-Time Hourly." That's minor metadata. Now ensure we don't include boilerplate: EEO, marijuana policy, accommodations, etc. Remove. Also remove selection process, application instructions, etc. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's craft:

        Department: Municipal Court. Location: 215 Office Bldg. Employment Type: Part-Time Hourly.

        Pay

        $110.00 per hour

        We need to ensure we didn't create Benefits or Schedule sections. Good. Check that we preserved all substantive info: job summary, judicial duties, qualifications, city competencies, capabilities, pay. Did we miss any? The posting also mentions "Assistant judges also review and rule on motions and documents relating to cases to which they are assigned or in which the Chief Judge has a conflict." That's part of Judicial Duties? Actually it's after the bullet list? Let's see original: after listing duties, there is sentence: "Assistant judges also review and rule on motions and documents relating to cases to which they are assigned or in which the Chief Judge has a conflict." Also "Assistant judges are invited, but not required, to attend scheduled judges’ meetings." Also "Assistant judges may, from time to time, be assigned to specific cases or appeals." Also "The ideal candidate must have a genuine desire to serve the community of Fort Collins by providing the highest possible level of service. It is fundamental to administer equitable, fair, and impartial justice in a timely and respectful manner; protect fundamental rights; promote public safety; and facilitate community reparation." That's more like a statement about ideal candidate; could be part of About the role or maybe Qualifications? It's more about desired attributes; could be included in Skills or maybe a separate section like "Desired attributes". But we have no heading for that; we could incorporate into About the role or Skills. Since we must preserve all substantive info, we need to include that content somewhere. Let's extract those sentences: From Job Summary: Actually after "Job Summary" paragraph there is a block: "An Assistant Municipal Judge is appointed by the Fort Collins City Council. The Assistant Judge presides over the municipal court docket as needed when the Chief Judge is unavailable or when two judges are necessary based on the size of the docket. An Assistant Municipal Judge may act in the capacity of a Municipal Court Referee and hear municipal court ordinance violations, parking violations, non-pointed traffic type cases (Camera Radar/Red Light cases) and review any costs of abatement pursuant to civil infraction provisions of the City Code. The municipal court docket includes civil infractions, traffic infractions, petty offenses, traffic misdemeanors, animal cases, parking cases, and misdemeanors. An assistant judge may preside over any type of docket or trial, including arraignments, pretrial conferences, in-custody hearings, pretrial readiness hearings, show cause hearings, court trials, jury trials, and any other hearing set on the docket. Assistant judges also review and rule on motions and documents relating to cases to which they are assigned or in which the Chief Judge has a conflict. Assistant judges are invited, but not required, to attend scheduled judges’ meetings. Assistant judges may, from time to time, be assigned to specific cases or appeals. The ideal candidate must have a genuine desire to serve the community of Fort Collins by providing the highest possible level of service. It is fundamental to administer equitable, fair, and impartial justice in a timely and respectful manner; protect fundamental rights; promote public safety; and facilitate community reparation." That's a lot of content; we need to include all of it. We previously only put a short job summary; we need to include the full text. Let's treat that as About the role (maybe more detailed). So we should put the entire block as

        (maybe multiple paragraphs). But we can keep as one

        with all sentences. Thus About the role section will contain that entire block. Now Responsibilities: we listed judicial duties; but note that some of the duties from the job summary also overlap with responsibilities (like presiding over docket, hearing types, etc). However the posting separates "Job Summary" and "Judicial Duties". We should keep both; we already have About the role (job summary) and Responsibilities (judicial duties). Ensure we didn't miss any duties: The judicial duties paragraph we captured earlier includes: "Con
