ROCK PORT, Mo. - A judge from Rock Port has been appointed to the fourth Judicial Circuit Court. Gov. Mike Parson appointed Judge Corey K. Herron to the court which includes Nodaway, Atchison, Holt, Gentry and Worth counties.

The position has been vacant since Nov. 9, when Judge Roger M. Prokes retired right before turning 70-years-old. The Governor's Office says Judge Herron currently serves as an Associate Circuit Judge for the 4th Judicial Circuit in Atchison County.

He holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and a Juris Doctor from the University of Missouri–Columbia.
