 * Good evening and thank you for the information. I have authorization to upload the photo from Judge Michael J. Scionti himself. I received the photo directly from the Judge, after he asked a photographer to take the photo per the Judge's request so that I could upload to his web pages. I have since uploaded his judicial photo to his judicial web page as well as to his profile on the Florida Bar website. Should I have the Judge contact you directly or send a statement to the permissions-commonswikimedia.org? Additionally, I see that my requested edit of changing the wording from Michael J. Scionti is a Circuit Court Judge from "the" circuit court Judge was also denied There are over 50 Judges within the 13th Judicial Circuit. I have communicated with him the difficulties I am having with updating his cite, but understand your company has its own policies and procedures in place.
