Kingfish: Jeff Weill Running for Hinds County Circuit Court Judge

Posted on March 23, 2010 by Philip Thomas

Kingfish has the story on Jeff Weill's announcement that he is running for the Hinds County Circuit Court Judge seat that is being vacated by Judge Swan Yerger:

Jackson City Councilman Jeff Weill of Ward 1 announced his candidacy for the Hinds County Circuit Judge position currently held by Swan Yerger. Yerger announced he is retiring from the bench. Weill made the announcement before a gathering in front of the Willie Morris Library on Old Canton Road. Weill is a lawyer and former prosecutor.

Weill has done a good job on the city council and is a viable candidate. Jackson lawyer Ashley Ogden is also expected to run for the seat. Some Jackson lawyers doubt that Ogden will run due to the size and success of his private law practice, which includes former Mississippi Supreme Court Chief Justice Jim Smith.
