Jane P. Wiseman is an American judge. She currently sits on the Oklahoma Court of Civil Appeals, the intermediate appellate court of the state of Oklahoma.

Governor Brad Henry appointed her to this position in March 2005[1] and she was retained by voters for District 1, Office 2 in the November 2006 election.[2] She was again retained by voters in November 2008 and November 2014, despite an aggressive campaign to unseat her.[3]

Education

Wiseman received her B.A. degree from Cornell University in 1969, her M.A. degree in American history from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1971, and her J.D. degree from the University of Tulsa College of Law in 1973.

Legal career

Wiseman began her legal career during law school as a clerk for the firm Rosenstein, Fist & Ringold, where she then became a legal intern, and then an associate until 1975. She then worked as a sole practitioner until January 1977, when she was appointed a special judge for Tulsa County. She worked in this position until February 1981, when she was appointed a district judge. On this court, she worked in the Family Relations Division and then the Civil Division.[1] She was the judge for nearly a thousand cases in the District Court.[4]

She served on the District Court until she was appointed to the Court of Civil Appeals in Tulsa by Governor Brad Henry in March 2005.[4]

Outside her normal duties, Wiseman has served as president of the Oklahoma Judicial Conference and currently serves on its executive board and legislative committee. As a member of the National Judicial College faculty in Reno, Nevada, she taught trial court case management. She has served the Oklahoma Bar Association on its Professionalism Committee, Evidence Committee, and the Special Task Force on Tort Reform. She is often a continuing legal education presenter for the Tulsa County Bar Association, and has served on its Awards and Nominations and Bench and Bar Committees.[4]

Personal life

Wiseman married Oklahoma legislator Bill Wiseman, but they later divorced after having two sons together.{{efn|Bill Wiseman died in a plane crash in October, 2007[5]}} She became stepmother to his two sons from a previous marriage.[6] According to her biography for the Oklahoma Policy Institute 2016 Speakers Bureau, she has since remarried, although she retained her first husband's surname. She also has two granddaughters.[4]{{efn|As of 2010, Wiseman's husband was reportedly Jim Hodges and had added two sons from the second marriage.[7]}}

Wiseman has a number of outside interests. In a 1991 interview, she said that she had taken a course in music at the Tulsa Junior College, then leaned to play the recorder, a medieval woodwind instrument. She plays handbells in the choir of the First Presbyterian Church of Tulsa and belongs to the local Gilbert & Sullivan Society.[6]

Her civic activities outside the courtroom include the Tulsa Chapter of the National Conference of Christians and Jews, and a task force serving the Day Center for the Homeless.[6]
