Dickson County Municipal Court Judge Reese Holley has been accused of judicial misconduct for ordering indigent defendants to perform public service work at charities favored by the judge prior to sentencing and before they were allowed access to a public defender. Jake Lockert, public defender for the 23rd Judicial District, filed the complaint against Holley, claiming the judge also allowed some defendants to donate funds to the charities to decrease the hours of community service the judge orders. Holley has 30 days to respond to the allegations, WKRN reports.
