Chesterfield J&DR Judge is Frontrunner for Circuit Court Seat

Chesterfield Circuit Court may soon return to full strength. The local legislative delegation has announced its support for current Chesterfield J&DR Court Judge Harold W. Burgess, Jr. It is now up to Governor Tim Kaine to make a pro tempore appointment to fill the seat vacated by Judge Cleo Powell when she took a seat on the Virginia Court of Appeals.
