As expected, Gov. Greg Gianforte has appointed County Attorney Travis Ahner to the District Court Bench. He’ll complete the term of Judge Amy Eddy, who transcends to the State Supreme Court in January.
The process of selecting the next District Court Judge began back in September when it became clear that one of our District Court Judges would become the next Supreme Court Justice. Gov. Gianforte formed an advisory committee and solicited applicants and comments before making his decision.
Our new District Court Judge is a Montana native, graduating from Carroll College in 2002 and earning his law degree from the University of Oregon 5-years later.
