Prosecuting Attorney's Association and the National College of District
Attorneys.
"My judicial philosophy is based upon my courtroom experience, fairness
to all parties, and consistency in applying the law," said Green. "My
experiences as a prosecutor and a military lawyer to senior commanders
is invaluable and will be beneficial in running the day to day
operations of the municipal court and supervising the staff
efficiently." Green holds the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in the Ohio
Army National Guard. Before returning to Darke County in 1993, he
served nearly five years on active duty with the U.S. Marine Corps

"If elected I will work hard every day to conduct the Court with
dignity and respect for others," stated Green, who received his law
degree in 1988 from the University of Dayton.
Green is a fiscally responsible conservative who believes that the
court should be run as a business. "I want to protect the taxpayers'
investment in the Court and make Darke County as safe as it can be.
Before any budget is approved or new expenses incurred, the question
should be asked: 'Is this expense to the taxpayers necessary'?'
Especially in these tough economic times, we must expect this from all
of our elected officials."

children: Ben, born in 1992; Mandy, born in 1994; and Sarah, born in
