Jefferson County District Court Judge Vicky Johnson and County Judge Linda Bauer hosted Senator-elect Tom Brandt for a court visit in conjunction with the swearing-in ceremony of that county’s elected officials on January 3, 2019.   The judges invited Senator-elect Brandt to learn more about the judicial system as part of the Supreme Court’s Judicial-Legislative Court Visit Program, and he also had an opportunity to visit with local public officials over coffee and rolls.  Commissioners, law enforcement, and other county officials took their oaths of office in the presence of their newly elected state senator.  Chief Probation Officer Jeremy Behrends and Clerk Magistrate Tammie Duensing assisted in organizing the day’s events.
