Judge Linda L. Lofthus is the new Presiding Judge of the San Joaquin County Superior Court and Judge Xapuri B. Villapudua is the Superior Court’s Assistant Presiding Judge.  Their two-year terms commenced January 1, 2018 and will continue through December 31, 2019.

It is with a sad heart that we announce the passing away of Mike Donaghy, Emergency Food Bank of Stockton/ San Joaquin Executive Director. 

On January 9, 2018, the Stockton City Council will study a proposed ordinance that would make property owners responsible for charges related to City-provided utilities. This change is being considered due to a significant increase in unpaid bills.  The January 9 meeting will be an introductory discussion; adoption of changes would occur at a future meeting.  Members of the public are welcome and encouraged to attend and provide ideas and information.
