A longtime Ventura County Supervisor Court Judge has retired.
Judge Kevin McGee stepped down after more two decades on the bench. He presided over everything from civil to criminal trials.
McGee was first elected as a Superior Court judge in 1998. But, before that he was a deputy district attorney for 16 years. He served four years as Chief Assistant District Attorney.
McGee is also well known for his community volunteer work with organizations like United Way and the Ventura County Fair.

Jury trials resume in Chatham Co. for first time since pandemic began
Jury trials resume in Chatham County By Sean Evans | April 5, 2021 at 6:56 AM EDT - Updated April 5 at 12:51 PM
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) - For the first time since last March, a criminal trial will be held at the Chatham County Courthouse.
Starting Monday, April 5, the trial involving a deadly shooting case from 2016 will begin.
It’s an important step for the community to move these cases through the judicial process. And even before the pandemic, there was a backlog of cases. So, now, with the trial process resuming, although not at the pre-pandemic pace just yet, the district attorney’s office will work toward chipping away at that caseload.

While most political ads have disappeared, there’s one local race still to be decided: district attorney for the Griffin Judicial Circuit, which includes Fayette, Spalding, Pike and Upson counties.
Veteran Assistant D.A. Marie Broder was appointed last year by Gov. Brian Kemp to replace Ben Coker, who became the circuit’s newest superior court judge. The special election on Feb. 9 is for the remaining two years of the four-year-term for D.A.
Broder, a Republican, has a Democrat opponent, Rev. Dexter Wimbish, a Griffin-based attorney and civil rights advocate.

District Attorney Marie Greene Broder has announced her candidacy for election as District Attorney of the Griffin Judicial Circuit in a special election on Feb. 9.
The Georgia Supreme Court recently ruled that the term of District Attorney could not be extended by the Governor for two years as was initially thought, so the Governor has called this special election, said Broder.
“I am honored to have this job, and I am running to remain District Attorney in this special election,” Broder said.
Broder was appointed in March to fill the vacancy left when former District Attorney Ben Coker was sworn in as Superior Court Judge.
