Melissa Marie Morris
I bring over 16 years of experience as a criminal defense attorney, where I handled serious felony cases, safeguarded constitutional rights, and worked directly with individuals and families affected by crime. That experience, grounded in my legal education and decades in courtrooms, gave me a deep understanding of what promotes both accountability and rehabilitation. As a Criminal Court Judge, I apply that perspective from the bench—holding people responsible while supporting evidence-based alternatives, treatment, and services that reduce recidivism, strengthen public safety, and promote lasting justice.
