Judge Jordan seeks extra judicial secretary, says court operations exceed recommended workload
Judge Jordan told the committee the Jackson County Circuit Court is operating at roughly 139% of recommended judicial workload and that adding a full-time judicial secretary would ease burden on existing support staff.

The judge said the request can be funded by shifting three juvenile-probation positions to a childcare fund at a higher reimbursable rate, producing net savings that cover the $75,000 annual cost of the secretary. Commissioners voted to recommend the position to the full board.
