A few of the Gov. Tim Walz’s most recent board appointments caught our eye. We thought we’d fill you in.
Court of Appeals Judge Louise Dovre Bjorkman has been appointed to another term on the Board of Judicial Standards. That’s the state agency that responds to conduct complaints about state court judges.
Her new term is effective on March 1 and expires on Jan. 6, 2025.
To the same board, the governor appointed as a public member Scott Sakaguchi, an Edina physician. Sakaguchi is a professor at the University of Minnesota Medical School’s Cardiovascular Division. A new appointee, his term also begins on March 1 and ends on Jan. 6, 2025.
