Ron DeSantis Names Two New Judges

Last week, Gov. Ron DeSantis announced two judicial appointments, one to the Twelfth Judicial Circuit Court and one to the Lake County Court.

Danielle Brewer, of Arcadia, to serve as Judge on the Twelfth Judicial Circuit Court.

She received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Florida and her law degree from Mercer University. Brewer fills the judicial vacancy created by the retirement of Judge Debra J. Riva.
