Gov. Ron DeSantis today, amid a series of judicial appointments, named Kenneth Janesk II of St. Augustine to serve as a circuit court judge in the Seventh Judicial Circuit, which includes Flagler, Volusia, St. Johns and Putnam counties.
Janesk has been a prosecutor in the Seventh Circuit State Attorney’s Office since 2011, working as the managing attorney of the Putnam County office. He received his bachelor’s degree from the University of Delaware and his law degree from Florida Coastal School of Law. He is married to Jennifer Dunton, the Assistant State Attorney assigned to the Flagler office who is currently on maternity leave. Obviously, Dunton would not argue cases before Janesk, who is likely to be assigned in Putnam County.
