Legal Experience

BE ACCESSIBLE AND EFFICIENT

Progress has been made in mitigating Covid 19. With that in mind, and safety protocols in place, the court should be accessible to the public not only through virtual means but also in person. The JP Court should also be available outside of traditional business hours. The JP Court should make every effort to provide equitable access to the court to all those who depend on it. Further, the JP Court should strive to be as technologically advanced as possible to make more efficient use of time and resources.

Issues

WORK EFFECTIVELY WITH OTHERS

The JP Court should work cooperatively, effectively, and professionally with the public, other courts, other agencies, and law enforcement. Working relationships are necessary to create an efficient court. The JP Court is accountable to the public it serves and to its agency partners.

Judicial Administration

3. Are there concerns in the county you feel have not been addressed?
Regarding the JP4 office, my biggest concern is the political activism occurring from the bench. If I am elected as the next JP4, I will follow the law. I am singularly focused on dedication to due process and procedural fairness and fulfilling the duties of the JP4 office with efficiency and professionalism.

Rhonda Redden (Republican Party)

Fair minded and objective, conservative values

In today’s highly charged political atmosphere, it is more important than ever to remain focused on delivering objective and impartial services to the citizens we serve. My years of public service have given me a foundation of diplomacy, discernment, and unbiased delivery of public information and resources to citizens. Moreover, I’ve spent the last two years training specifically for the position of Justice of the Peace. It is just as important to spend time preparing to do the job as it is to campaign for the job. Bottom line, I put the citizens I serve ahead of any political ideology.

Vote Rhonda Redden for Wilco JP4

The courtroom is a place where objectivity and impartiality are essential. It should provide an objective and neutral legal system to the public it serves. The JP is responsible to both the victim and offender, the plaintiff and defendant, and it is essential to give a fair and equitable hearing to all involved. The JP Court should hear and weigh evidence and/or testimony from all involved sides and then apply rulings fairly, responsibly, and in accordance with the law. When appropriate, discretion should be used in mitigating circumstances so that a just resolution is achieved.
