The Tennessee Supreme Court last week appointed retired Judge John Damron as special judge to preside over the Coffee County General Sessions and Juvenile Court as needed following Judge Tim Brock’s sudden death in November, the Tullahoma News reports. Damron previously served as a general sessions judge in the 22nd Judicial District, which covers Giles, Lawrence, Maury, and Wayne counties. He will fill the seat until the next election. Five individuals have indicated interest in running for the seat in the March primary. The deadline to file for the election is Dec. 12.
