Haakenson announces he's a candidate for judge
— Outside of his actual home, Mike Haakenson said, he feels most at home in a courtroom.He wants to spend more time there as a Rock County judge.
"Since coming here, I have been in court almost every day," Haakenson wrote in a news release. "I feel at home in a courtroom, and I believe I'm ready to assume the tremendous responsibility of being a judge if I am elected."
Haakenson on Wednesday announced he would run to replace Judge James Welker, who is not running for re-election. Haakenson is the fifth Janesville attorney to announce a campaign.
Haakenson, 49, of 2215 Purple Aster Lane, Janesville, has been an attorney in Janesville since 1989.
For the last 10 years, he has served as one of several court-appointed guardians ad litem in the county.
The experience of speaking for the rights of a child or for an adult who can't speak for his or her self is evidence Haakenson can listen to all parties before making decisions on a case, he said.
