Ind. Courts - New Judge Moores to serve as the new juvenile court judge
Although it had earlier been reported that Governor Daniel's apointment to fill Judge Payne's vacancy on the Marion Superior Court would not necessarily sit as the juvenile court judge (that being up to the judges), as it turns out the Indianapolis Star is reporting this afternoon:
Marion Superior Court judges announced this morning that former City-County Council member Marilyn Ann Moores will serve as the new juvenile court judge. * * *Judge Cale Bradford, the county's presiding judge, also announced three new orders that consolidate:
• juvenile and adult probation departments;
• juvenile court administration with superior court administration;
• appoint Bradford as the chair of the juvenile division, which gives him the authority to make administrative and policy decisions over the court.
Bradford also announced that the county is seeking a $1 million grant to build more alternatives to incarceration for juvenile inmates.
