Senate Bill 164, which became effective July 1, 1998, requires any municipal judge who is not an attorney, to participate in a training program conducted by the League. Additionally, HB 2120, which became effective May 21, 2007, now requires municipal judges who are not attorneys, to receive continuing legal training on an annual basis.
The League has prepared our sixteenth training session for municipal judges scheduled for November 8, 2013, at Embassy Suites Hotel, 300 Court Street, Charleston, WV 25301. Training will be conducted on November 7, 2013, for municipal court clerks.
Certificates of Completion will be issued to each person attending the municipal judge training. (CLE with State Bar approval).
Senate President Jeff Kessler (D-Marshall) announced today that the West Virginia Blue Book, now in its 92nd printing, is available for the first time on the West Virginia Legislature’s website. First published in 1916, the Blue Book is a comprehensive reference guide on current officials in the executive, legislative and judicial branches of state government; federal officers; and, political leaders. The Blue Book also contains information on state and federal agencies; the U.S. and State Constitutions; and statistics on counties, municipalities and statewide organizations. It is published every year by the Senate Clerk’s office.
