Indiana Law - Feature story on new Floyd County judge

This story today in the Louisville Courier-Journal features Susan Orth, who will take over as judge in Indiana's Floyd Superior Court. Some quotes:

Tomorrow morning will mark the first time that the full-time judge of Floyd Superior Court has been someone other than Richard Striegel, who retires today after holding the position since it was created in 1979.

The new judge is former longtime Floyd County Deputy Prosecutor Susan Orth. More than 15 years of prosecuting cases makes her no stranger to the second-floor courtroom in the City County Building in New Albany, Ind.
