Judge Mary Kuhnmuench Will Be New Small Claims/Eviction Judge in Milwaukee County

Posted by Tristan R. Pettit, Esq. in Evictions, Milwaukee County, Small Claims Court / Comments

In Milwaukee County we get a new small claims/eviction judge each year around August 1st or so.  Most judicial rotations are three years long  but for some reason --- possibly the high volume, tediousness, pro se litigants, stress level --- the small claims judge rotates every year.

Milwaukee County's new small claims/eviction judge effective July 27, 2012, will be Mary M. Kuhnmuench.  Judge Kuhnmuench is currently completing her rotation in criminal misdemeanor court.

Judge Kuenhmuench was elected in 1998, and re-elected in both 2004 and 2010.  Prior to being a judge she was an Assistant City Attorney in Milwaukee, an in-house corporate attorney at A.O. Smith and and adjunct professor of business law at Alverno College.
