Governor Kelly Appoints Grant Brazill to Fill District Court Position in the 18th Judicial District

*
TOPEKA* – Governor Laura Kelly today appointed Grant Brazill of Wichita to a judgeship position in the 18th Judicial District. The vacancy was created by the passing of the Honorable Bruce Brown.

"Grant Brazill brings robust legal experience as a child welfare practitioner to the bench," *Governor Laura Kelly said.* "His dedication to fighting for the rights and well-being of children and families gives him a unique perspective that will serve the 18th Judicial District well."

Brazill is a partner at Morris Laing Law Firm in Wichita, Kansas. He has been appointed to the Kansas Supreme Court Task Force on Permanency Planning and serves as the chairperson of the Wichita Bar Association Juvenile Law Committee.

"I am honored by this appointment and am committed to serving the people of Sedgwick County by ensuring that every individual who comes before the Court is treated with dignity, respect, and impartiality," *said Grant Brazill.*

District Court Judges in the 18th Judicial District are elected and serve four-year terms. When a vacancy occurs in the middle of a judge’s term, the governor appoints a new judge to fill the position and finish out the term. Elections for this position will be held in 2026.
