Elect Trent Howell Justice Court Judge District Two

11/12/2019

THANK YOU

To the voters of Yalobusha County, I want to thank you for electing me as your next Justice Court Judge. I am humbled by the encouragement and support I received. And I pledge to perform my judicial duties to the best of my ability. A special thank you goes out to my relatives and friends who manned stations outside the polling places for me. I also want to thank my friend Tommy Defer for running a good clean campaign, and for a hard fought battle. His family and mine have been friends for years and nothing has or will change that.

Lastly, I want to thank my late wife Shelley, without whose love and support I never would have made it this far. This political victory is hers as much as it is mine.

Sincerely

Trent Howell

To The Citizens Of Yalobusha County

To all of you who voted in the recent party primary election, I say thank you. You have performed an important civic duty. But the election process is not over. On November 5, 2019 we have another important election, the general election, that will ultimately decide who will occupy various county positions for the next four years. Included among these is that of Justice Court Judge for District Two, the position that I am a candidate for. Several people told me early on that to win the election I must run as a Democrat. Others said I must run as a Republican. Instead of taking their advice I chose to run as an Independent, well, because I feel all Judge elections should be nonpartisan. There is no place for politics in holding the office of Judge, any Judge, but especially that of Justice Court Judge. Judges’ decisions should be based on the facts, as determined by the evidence, and the law. In doing so the Judge assures everyone who comes before him, or her, that they will receive a fair trial.

If elected I promise to be fair and impartial, to all who come before me, whether rich or poor, and no matter what the color of their skin is, or what political party they favor. I will treat everyone with respect. If elected I will also respect and work well with the present Court Clerk and her deputy. They perform a vital service to our county often without receiving the recognition they deserve.

So again, I ask all of you who voted in August, whether Democrat or Republican, as well as those of you who chose not to vote, to vote on November 5, in the general election. And I humbly ask you to vote for me, Trent Howell, as your next Justice Court Judge.

A list of some of my qualifications and achievements are listed below.

• Undergraduate and Law degree from the University of Mississippi
• 39 years experience practicing law in Water Valley
• 27 years service as Water Valley School Board attorney
• 25 years experience as Water Valley’s Municipal Court Judge
• Participated in hundreds of trials and hearings in all state courts
• Past Member of Disciplinary Complaint Tribunal of Mississippi State Bar
• Past President of Water Valley Area Chamber of Commerce
• Past President of Yalobusha County Economic Development Foundation
• Past President of Water Valley Rotary Club
• Past Chairman of Administrative Board of First United Methodist Church
• 1971 Graduate of Water Valley High School
• MARRIED FOR 39 WONDERFUL YEARS TO THE LATE SHELLEY HOWELL

Thank you,

Trent Howell
