Arlington council approves two part‑time municipal judge appointments
Summary
The council approved the second/final reading to appoint Celso Viduri and Karen Williams as part‑time municipal judges, with staff noting their existing magistrate experience in neighboring jurisdictions.
Arlington City Council voted to appoint two part‑time municipal judges in the second and final reading of the appointments.
Judge Evans (on the dais for the municipal court item) introduced the appointments, naming Judge Celso Viduri, a magistrate judge in Dallas, and Judge Karen Williams, a part‑time magistrate judge in Fort Worth. The council moved, seconded and the motion passed; the transcript records only that “the motion passes.”
Staff did not provide additional detail about start dates or compensation at the time of the vote; city staff will complete appointment paperwork and onboarding steps following council approval.
