More judges

Besides Cheryl Higgins in Albemarle, on Friday, the General Assembly approved two for general district court and one for juvenile court:

Paul W. Cella, of Powhatan, as a judge of the Eleventh Judicial District for a term of six years commencing August 1, 2007.

Sarah L. Deneke, of Stafford, as a judge of the Fifteenth Judicial District for a term of six years commencing April 1, 2007.

Phillip U. Fines, of Spotsylvania, as a judge of the Fifteenth Judicial District for a term of six years commencing July 1, 2007.

In this article, the Fredericksburg paper notes that Deneke and Fines are both prosecutors.

This story says a Republican delegate is refusing to act on a judicial position where his sister is a candidate for the job, with the result that the circuit court judges will have to pick some one.
