Judges Matter Experienced and well-qualified District Court
judges are essential to the efficient and effective functioning of our judicial system. District Courts - typically
the first point of contact for citizens seeking protection of their rights - decide many important issues including: Domestic
/ Juvenile / Family Cases / Criminal Cases / Traffic Cases / and most Civil and certain Real Estate Lawsuits Retaining a judge with proven knowledge of the law, demonstrated judicial temperament, organizational
skill, and commitment to service is crucial. We need to keep Judge Todd Owens in District Court; Mecklenburg County
truly cannot afford to lose his knowledge, experience and compassion.
