MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) - Outgoing Gov. Peter Shumlin is going to be swearing in two Vermont lawyers as new Superior Court judges.
In a Wednesday ceremony at the Vermont Statehouse in Montpelier Shumlin is going to swear in Rutland Attorney Elizabeth Mann and Addison County State’s Attorney David Fenster.
Mann is filling the vacancy created by the retirement of Judge Kathleen Manley. Fenster is filling a newly created position.
Shumlin, a Democrat, says both Mann and Fenster both bring strong legal backgrounds to their new roles.
Mann has 25-years of experience in Vermont criminal, civil, and family law.
Fenster has served as State’s Attorney for Addison County since November 2009.
