--> --> Land-use laws up for grabs in this May election If you haven't voted yet, and haven't received a mailing from the Oregon League of Conservation Voters, you should know that the usually ignored judge races contain a booby-trap this time in the form of the candidacy of David J. Hunnicutt, running for Judge of the Court of Appeals. This is a non-partisan race, but Hunnicutt is a right-wing, "wise-use" zealot, a land-use lawyer who represents Oregonians in Action, a property-rights group composed of developers and timber companies that benefit from uncontrolled sprawl. He hopes to unseat the incumbent, David Schuman, a judge distinguished by the highest integrity, intelligence, and ability and strongly recommended by Gov.
