News From the Law Community
Congratulations to
John Good, winner of the primary election held in May, for Municipal Court Judge. John
is the Republican party nominee. There was no democratic candidate
in the primary. John will presumptively assume office in January of 2012
following Judge Jacob Fridline's retirement.
John has resided in Ashland since 1992 and served in the prosecutor's
office for seven years. He specializes in criminal defense and
civil litigation.
John states that Judge Fridline has built one of the best municipal
courts in Ohio, handling over 12,000 cases per year and all concluded on
time. John says he plans to continue with Judge Fridline's mission which
has always been to treat people fairly and function in an environment of
courtesy and efficiency while remaining very human. "It's a
tremendous responsibility to be able to inherit all this."
The municipal court must always remain a peoples' court and the people
must always feel welcome. John says that "locked courtroom doors have no
place in America" and will strive to uphold the "fundamental duty of the
court which is to protect the community."
John and his wife, Anita, are the parents of two children, Reagan
and Jake.
We're all looking forward to John's tenure as Municipal Court Judge.
Welcome and congratulations John!
