WHITE RIVER JUNCTION — Facing felony marijuana possession charges, a 61-year-old Windsor lawyer will no longer serve as a family court judge.
The court administrator says Martha Davis has been removed from the list of approved attorneys to sit on family court cases in White River Junction.
Davis was charged this year after game wardens looking for a dead deer found marijuana growing on her property. A subsequent search of her home found 2 1/2 pounds of marijuana.
Windsor County State's Attorney Robert Sand has referred the case to the court diversion program, setting off a controversy with Gov. Jim Douglas, who has condemned the decision. |
