Her career as judge ended almost as soon as it began.
Millie Thompson only served four months on the bench before leaving her post as Hays County Judge, Court-at-Law No. 3. The fact she suddenly vacated her post was curious enough, but the way she left was even more bizarre. The newly elected judge left a handwritten message located on her desk Wednesday morning that simply stated: “I hereby resign as judge of Hays County Court-at-Law No. 3 effective upon receipt of this resignation.”
The
San Marcos Daily Record has tried to contact Thompson with no reply.
Thompson, a Democrat, became embroiled with other judges and staff personnel during her first months on the bench issuing a criminal trespass warning. She went as far as to hire a private locksmith to change the locks at her office at the Hays County government center and recused herself from several local attorneys cases.
