2nd Judicial District Nominating Commission to meet
11/14/2025

(KMZA)--The 2nd Judicial District Nominating Commission will convene by conference call Monday afternoon, November 17, to discuss the nomination process to fill a district magistrate judge vacancy in Pottawatomie County.

The vacancy was created when District Magistrate Judge Erich Campbell died September 18.

The 2nd Judicial District is composed of Jackson, Jefferson, Pottawatomie, and Wabaunsee counties.

The nominating commission seeks nominations and then meets to interview the nominees. Interviews are open to the public. The commission selects who is appointed to fill the district magistrate judge vacancy according to statutory qualification and residency requirements.

After serving one year in office, a new judge must stand for a retention vote in the next general election to remain in the position. If retained, the incumbent will serve a four-year term.
