The 32nd Judicial District court recently held a portrait unveiling for Judge Michael “Mike” E. Spitzer, who retired last year. A reception followed the ceremony. Judge William K. Lane III, who replaced Spitzer, writes that Spitzer played a critical role in the establishment of the judicial district and was the first judge to be elected in the district, which serves Hickman, Lewis and Perry counties. The district was created to help with a growing caseload in the 21st Judicial District due to Williamson County's rapid growth. Spitzer previously sat as one of five judges in the 21st District.
