Three judges in Jasper County have received recognition for their participation in the judicial transfer program in the state of Missouri. The program provides wider availability of judges to the state by allowing the presiding judge of a circuit to request alternate adjudicators from anywhere in Missouri.

For example, a transfer may be requested when a local circuit judge must recuse themself from specific cases or subject matter in their jurisdiction. A judge from another circuit in Missouri can be made available to hear cases and assist courts in additional circuit courts throughout Missouri.

Presiding Judge Gail L. Crane, Judge Dean G. Dankleson, and Judge David B. Mouton were recognized by the Missouri Chief Justice George W. Draper III of the Missouri State Supreme Court during an annual ceremony at the meeting of Judicial Counseling of Missouri.
