Municipal Judge Substitute

[Laurahwillis]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

The state is Alabama.

Can a Municipal Judge send in his Attorney Law Partner to hear all of the Traffic Cases in Traffic Court?

In all likelihood, yes. You can contact the mayor to ask if the judge's law partner has been appointed as a temporary judge.

Vacancies in municipal court positions are filled by appointments made by the municipal governing bodies.
