1st woman southern district judge

Kristi Haskins Johnson of Brandon became the first woman judge of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi last week following a formal investiture ceremony. She was confirmed by the U.S. Senate in Nov. 2020 and the ceremony delayed by the COVID pandemic. Johnson, who graduated from Ole Miss, previously worked as Mississippi’s first solicitor general.
