I was initially appointed in 2001 to fill a vacancy as Constable in the Peoria Justice Court.   I was elected in 2002 and re-elected in 2006 and 2010.   With a move and name change, the court is now named the Arrowhead Justice Court.   

As Constable, I serve criminal and civil process issued primarily by Justice Courts in Maricopa County but also from other non-federal courts throughout Arizona and the United States.   Included in the process I serve are protective orders, subpoenas, summonses and evictions.   My court precinct covers most of Peoria; part of Youngtown; all of Sun City and Glendale north of Bell Road.

The Constable is elected by the public.   Constables have been part of the Arizona court system since 1861.   There are currently 25 Constables and 25 Justices of the Peace in Maricopa County, one for each precinct.   

As Constable, it is essential that I deal successfully with the public, as I am frequently the first contact an individual may have with the judicial system.   Part of my job is to assist people to understand the court action they may be facing.
