Fourth Judicial District Court Judge Darci Phillips, who has been tasked with choosing the new Sheridan County Commissioner, issued a Supplemental Order on Friday outlining the procedure that will be followed during interviews of the three candidates this Wednesday.

The three candidates, Michael Arzy, Bryan Helferich, and Holly Jennings, will be sworn under oath and interviewed in alphabetical order, also being subject to sequestration.

Each interview will be limited to 20 minutes.

Candidates will then be asked: “What is your name? What country and state do you reside in? What is the month and year of your birth?; Are you a registered voter? What is your registered party affiliation? Are you currently adjudicated as a mentally incompetent person? Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, have your civil voting rights been restored?”

They will also be asked “What qualifications do you have to serve as a county commissioner? Why do you believe you should be appointed to fill the vacancy on the Board of County Commission?”

The interviews will be conducted Wednesday morning beginning at 9 a.m. in the District Courtroom at the Sheridan County Courthouse.

Judge Phillips has announced that she will issue a written decision on her selection on or before Tuesday, September 19.
