Kyle Hedrick
› Office: Hamilton
County Circuit Court Judge, Division 4
› Party: Republican
› Previous public office experience: None
› Why voters should choose me: I have been serving as Circuit Court judge for the past six months, following a five-month selection process by the Trial Court Vacancy Commission and the governor. I have 30 years experience trying cases in all courts and forums in Tennessee. I have seven years experience as an administrative hearing officer for the cities of East Ridge, Collegedale and Red Bank. I have the greatest support in the world — my wife of 34 years, Brenda Hedrick. I served as a youth minister for 12 years while working full time as an attorney. Born and raised in Hamilton County, Brenda and I raised our children in Hamilton County.
› Biggest challenge facing the office I seek: I am fortunate to follow Judges Neil Thomas III and William L. “Chink” Brown. Filling those shoes with the same quality, consistency and fairness is a tall order.
› How I will address this challenge: With hard work, treating all who come before me with fairness and dignity, and following the laws that have been provided to me by the legislature, case law and constitution. By adhering to the principle stated in my campaign: I don’t make the law; that’s not my job.
› Policy position of mine that may surprise people: I cannot have policy positions and certainly none that would surprise people. I am guided strictly by the laws provided to me.
› Public servant I most admire: n/a
