Defense attorney Amanda Dunn this morning announced that she is running to fill the seat of retiring Hamilton County Criminal Court Judge Don Poole, the Chattanoogan reports. Dunn has been a defense attorney for nearly 20 years and has practiced with Chattanooga’s Houston & Alexander law firm since 2018. “I’m one of the rare attorneys in town who has practiced in criminal, state and federal court, along with juvenile court,” Dunn said this morning. “I’ve been in every courthouse with the exception of bankruptcy.” Poole oversees the third division of criminal court, which is in charge of mental health court.
