GOVERNMENT NEWS
- ➤ Three finalists, Timothy L. Johnson, Elizabeth H. Kelley, and Thomas M. Ward, have been named by the 20th Judicial District Nominating Commission to fill the judge vacancy created when Chief District Judge Ingrid Bakke retires on July 12 in Boulder County. Gov. Jared Polis has 15 days (until May 16) to select one nominee, and the chosen candidate will serve a two-year provisional term (pending voter approval) before a new chief district judge is appointed by the Colorado Supreme Court chief justice.

The hospital uses strict guidelines to match donors with young patients, and the Gibsons hope a donor in Colorado will come forward before his condition worsens. Colorado Hometown Weekly
