Toledo Legal News - News Judge James Carr appointed to two benches, one by a democrat, one by a republican

 

Judge James Carr is a contemplative man. Other judges talk of their love of gardening or golf; Judge Carr, a graduate of Harvard Law, walks around the block while listening to a book on tape.
