Meet Judge Michele Reagan

 

Michele Reagan is currently one of only a handful of Arizonans who have served in all 3 branches of state government. After a successful decade owning a small business in Phoenix, she was elected to the Arizona House of Representatives in 2002 and later also served in the Arizona Senate where she chaired the Economic Development Committee. In 2014 Judge Reagan was elected to serve as Arizona’s 20th Secretary of State.  Previously, Reagan was named one of the 50 most Influential Women in Arizona by AZ Business Magazine.


Judge Reagan is passionate about Veterans' affairs and is the presiding judge of the Northeast Veterans Treatment Court.


She succeeds her father, Judge Michael Reagan, who served as the McDowell Mountain Justice of the Peace for 15 years. As a tribute to the work he did, Michele still wears his old robe while on the Bench.

Just Us Courts Newletter Jan 2022

On the Horizon

  

A new year also brings new   bills in the Arizona statehouse which will affect court operations. Judge Michele   Reagan (McDowell Mountain) is the chair of the Justice Courts’   Legislative Committee. Her unique experience in both the Senate and House,   and as the Arizona Secretary of State make her a perfect point person for all   proposed legislation that touch our business.

One   effort worth watching: Senate Bill 1191.

If   passed, this would allow any party – plaintiff, defendant, attorney, or   witness – to request virtual participation in any civil court matter.

A   similar law went into effect last year for eviction cases and we saw failures   to appear drop significantly.

It is   still far too early in the legislative session to see where this might go,   but Judge Reagan will be watching it and many others for the next few months.
