Heplerbroom issued the following announcement on Dec. 3.
Kathleen Hamilton is once again one of three nominees submitted to Governor Parson to fill a vacancy on the Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District.

As required by the Non-Partisan Court Plan, the Commission chooses three of the candidates to nominate and submit to the Governor. The Governor then undertakes a further vetting process and determines which of the nominees to appoint to the court.
