Attorney Seeks Superior Judgeship

If elected, Woodstock attorney Mark Shriver claims he will save more than $2 million taxpayer dollars, reduce the court’s backlog, and modernize the office of Superior Court Judge, according to a press release announcing his candidacy. 

“Our courts must serve the interest of our citizens in a timely and responsible manner,” Shriver said.  “After 30 years on the bench, Judge Mills is running a court that is backlogged and has a reputation for slowly dealing with cases at taxpayer expense. I will cut costs for the taxpayers as an efficient and hard-working Judge.”

Shriver is running with three goals: 

• To create a new drug court to reduce the court’s backlog of cases and build an effective courtroom. This would be completely funded by guilty defendants without any cost to taxpayers and will decrease the superior court’s case load. 
• Create a new child support court specializing in child support cases that can overload the general court.  
• Designate specific times for cases to be heard in court.
