3 Finalists Named To Serve 6th District
A Judicial Nominating Commission for the County Court Judge in the Sixth District has selected three finalists.
The commission forwarded the names of Joel E. Carlson of Norfolk, Edward H. Matney of Hartington and Patrick R. Runge of Omaha to Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts for his consideration.
The vacancy is due to the retirement of Judge Kurt T. Rager.
Rager retired after 19 years of service, and he had served several terms as presiding judge of the 6th Judicial District. Last year, Rager served as host when the Nebraska Supreme Court visited South Sioux City.
The 6th Judicial District encompasses Burt, Cedar, Dakota, Dixon, Dodge, Thurston, and Washington counties. Rager’s primary place of office was in Dakota City.
