An Eau Claire Deputy City Attorney is now a county judge.
Governor Tony Evers appointed Douglas Hoffer to the Eau Claire County Circuit Court Branch Two seat, which was left open by Judge Michael Schumacher. The former judge resigned in May. Hoffer’s last day at the City Attorney’s Office will be August 16th, and his term as judge will end next July.
Hoffer lives in Eau Claire with his family, and graduated from Marquette University Law School.
