Bagley named new judge
Utah Governor Jon Huntsman announced the appointment of Marvin D. Bagley as Sixth District Court judge to fill the seat of retiring Judge David L. Mower Tuesday afternoon.
“Judge Bagley brings broad-based experience to the bench and has extensive support from the communities where he will serve,” Huntsman said. “He has a sincere desire to serve the public and I'm confident he will be a great asset.”
Bagley graduated from Brigham Young University Law School and served a judicial clerkship in the United States District Court of Nevada. He spent eight years with Salt Lake City law firm VanCott, Bagley, Cornwall, and McCarthy as a shareholder with a focus on civil litigation.
Bagley has an active law practice in the Sixth District. He currently serves as County Attorney for both Piute and Wayne Counties and is the city prosecutor for Manti City, Gunnison City and Escalante City. He also represents several other cities and towns in the district. Bagley maintains a private civil practice in Richfield with emphasis on civil litigation.
The Sixth District encompasses Garfield, Kane, Sanpete, Sevier, Piute and Wayne counties.
Huntsman also appointed Third District Court Presiding Judge Robert K. Hilder to fill the upcoming vacancy on the Utah Court of Appeals resulting from the retirement of Judge Judith Billings, one of the original members of that court.
“Judge Hilder has been an excellent trial court judge for more than 12 years, and brings with him valuable knowledge and experience to our Court of Appeals,” Governor Huntsman said. “I am grateful for his willingness to serve in this new capacity.”
The appointments are subject to confirmation by the Utah State Senate.
