A.J. Wagner was a judge of the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas in Dayton, Ohio. He retired on December 31, 2010.[1]
Rescinds resignation
On December 30, 2010, former Governor Ted Strickland announced Steven Dankof was chosen as a successor for the retiring A.J. Wagner. Wagner admitted that he wanted to retire under a Democratic governor, in order for his staff to keep their jobs. When he learned that Dankof had the intention of replacing a staff member, Wagner rescinded his resignation, the same day that Dankof's appointment was announced.
Dankof was sworn in on January 3, 2011 and a spokesperson for (the now-former) Governor Strickland said, "...it is the governor's position that Wagner had given up his seat." According to Wagner, all three of his staff members would keep their jobs under the new judge.[2][3]
