Judge Britton Ends Long Public Service Career
Judge Harry Britton of Clermont County retires from the Common Pleas Court bench to resume private law practice in Batavia after a 25 year public career. Born in Williamsburg, he first served as prosecuting attorney in 1920 and later ran for judge in 1945, choosing change over reelection. He values both roles, plans to associate with Asked, and maintains strong community ties and prison correspondence as a measure of character.
