RICHMOND â The General Assembly elected new judges Tuesday to benches around the Roanoke Valley, including someone to fill a vacancy left by a Roanoke Juvenile and Domestic Relations District judge who recently and quietly stepped down.
Heather Ferguson will succeed John Weber III, who became a domestic court judge in 2015. His first term on the bench was due to extend through June, and his motivation for departing early has not been announced and remains unclear.
Judge Hilary Griffith, chief of Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court in the 23rd Judicial District, confirmed last week that Weber had left, but referred questions about his departure to the Virginia Supreme Courtâs executive secretary. That office did not immediately respond to messages left this week.

Sky watchers got a real treat Thursday night as the wolf moon filled the night sky.
Though the Virtual Telescope Project will stream video of the first full moonrise of the year over Rome s skyline, amateur astronomers can watch the sky through the early part of Saturday morning – barring any cloud cover due to winter storms.
The name is attributed to Native Americans noticing that wolves would howl during the winter months, when food was scarce, according to the Old Farmer s Almanac.
