CHANUTE — A schedule has been announced for interviews for a pair of district magistrate judge vacancies.

The 31st Judicial District Nominating Commission will convene at 9 a.m. Thursday, April 6, to interview nominees for the two vacancies, one in Allen County and the other for Neosho County.

Interviews will be at Chanute’s Judicial Center, 102 S. Lincoln St.

One position was created by Judge Tod Davis’s appointment as a district judge. The other was among the new positions certified by the Kansas Supreme Court after state lawmakers approved funding to help meet the growing workload within the judicial system.

The committee will interview Melissa Dugan of Chanute at 9:30 a.m., followed by Iola attorney Chuck Apt at 10 o’clock. Yates Center’s Zelda Schlotterbeck will be interviewed at 10:45 and Harry Edward Frock of Miami, Okla., at 11:15.
