County Judge Daryl Fowler swore in Lindsay Renee Ruppert as Justice of the Peace for Precinct 1 on May 28, in a packed DeWitt County courthouse.
Her husband, Jeff, held the Bible during the ceremony, which was attended by family, friends, and supporters from DeWitt and Lavaca Counties.
Judge Fowler welcomed the attendees. “I don’t know when it was the last time we had such a large group of folks representing Lavaca County and Yoakum, etc., here. We are certainly glad to have you and would like to invite those of you who haven’t been here to walk around the courthouse. There are no fees today,” he joked.
