Tom Reynolds

Klickitat-Skamania Superior Court

This candidate will appear on the ballot without opposition.

Current Occupation/Employer: Superior Court Judge, Klickitat and Skamania Counties

Education: Graduate of Gonzaga University Law School, Grove City College, Washington State Judicial College, and the General Jurisdiction Program of the National Judicial College.

Legal/Judicial Experience: Admitted to WA Bar Association, 1977. Private Law practice, 18 years. Superior Court Judge, 13 years.

Family: Married to Bonnie Reynolds, two children, one grandchild.

Significant Career Experience: City Attorney for City of White Salmon, 1984-1995. Member of Board of Trustees of Superior Court Judge’s Association 1999-2002. Member of Rural Courts Committee and Criminal Law Committee of Superior Court Judge’s Association.

Candidate Statement: Having served as a Superior Court Judge since 1995, I have the knowledge, experience, maturity, and common sense that are necessary requirements for that position.

I have made the Superior Court more accessible to the public by implementing a separate court docket for unrepresented persons, instituting mandatory arbitration in certain civil cases, and by creating a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) program to allow trained volunteers to represent children in dependency cases.

I believe that the people using the court should be treated fairly and their cases deserve to be addressed in an efficient and timely manner. I would appreciate your vote to continue to make this possible.

Because only one candidate filed for this Superior Court position, the candidate will appear on the August 19 primary ballot unopposed.
