A Uintah Basin judge has received an appointment to a new District in Utah. The Governor’s Office announced on Friday that Judge Ryan Evershed is now appointed to the Second District Juvenile Court which covers Davis, Morgan, and Weber Counties. Judge Ryan B. Evershed was appointed to the Eighth District Juvenile Court in August 2013 by Gov. Gary R. Herbert. Before becoming a judge, Judge Evershed gained valuable experience in Juvenile Court where he represented the Division of Child and Family Services in court cases involving child abuse, neglect, and dependency. “I am deeply humbled and grateful to be given this opportunity to work in the Juvenile Court in the Second District,” Judge Evershed said. “I have worked in Juvenile Court in several roles for the past eighteen years. It has been the greatest honor of my professional life to be a Juvenile Court Judge and help children and families in their most challenging times. I have loved working with the great people of the Uintah Basin, and if I am fortunate enough to be confirmed by the Senate, I will diligently work to do my best for the people in the Second District.”
