Judicial Retirement
Magistrate Judge Hugh J. Morgan announced his retirement today. Judge Morgan has served six terms and has been on the bench for almost 25 years. He was the only magistrate to sit in the Florida Keys thus raising questions about whether he will be replaced or the part-time mag position in Key West will be gone forever. Anyone with inside information on what will likely happen feel free to comment.
Since Lurana Snow has a home in the Keys and a fondness for being there, expect her to be designated to Key West part-time, with part-time duties in Ft. Lauderdale, as well.
