Orleans has new Juvenile Judge

The Times-Picayune reports that Orleans Parish Juvenile Judge Anita Ganucheau announced she will retire after 25 years on the bench. Accordingly, her only challenger for the bench, Louis F. Douglas, will take her seat in Section E of the court. "When pressed, Ganucheau said that while Douglas' entrance into the race wasn't a factor in her retirement decision, 'the fact that he is a capable person just probably made it easier for me to come to my decision.'"
