Interesting Days at District Court
October 28th, 2009 by Joe Burgess
Monticello’s District Court has been extremely busy, during the past few weeks. The district court is in session everyTuesday and Wednesday (except for months that have 5).
On a recent Tuesday afternoon, a total of 668 individual cases went before the judge, during what is called a “plea day”, when cases are divided between those who plead “guilty” and “not guilty”.
On a Wednesday session, earlier this month, Judge Kenneth Harper was called as a witness. In June, there was an altercation, which led to the arrest of one of that day’s defendants. Since Judge Harper was presiding, he was called as a witness. Judge Harper is shown here, being sworn in by Hamburg District Judge Reid Harrod, who served as judge for the case.
