The General Assembly has spoken

By Steve

In Southwest Virginia, as someone told me a while back, Judge Pat Johnson got the circuit court job in the 29th circuit, Greg Matney from Tazewell County got the general district court job, and nobody got Judge Farmer's job on the juvenile court, which may mean that he gets to keep it until next year.

And, John Cook got in for Lynchburg circuit court, along with Ludwig and Wilson up in Staunton and Harrisonburg. Those were the ones I was following.

Evidently, they punted on the State Corporation Commission, plus I can't tell how many of the local judgeships, besides the juvenile court position in the Dickenson/Buchanan/Tazewell/Russell district.

But, they did find time to commend Judge Wood, and rightly so.
