Sen. Coleman Confirmed to be a Judge
May 3, 2018I am honored to have been able to cast my vote in support of my friend, Eric D. Coleman to be a Judge of the Superior Court.

Through his work as an attorney of law, Mr. Coleman served with distinction and honor, and his impressive accomplishments in the General Assembly are a testament to his commitment and desire to serve.
