Shumlin Appoints Chief Legal Counsel To Vt. Supreme Court
Governor Peter Shumlin has appointed his chief lawyer to the Vermont Supreme Court.

Shumlin announced Tuesday that he's tapped Beth Robinson to fill a vacancy created when Justice Denise Johnson announced her retirement.

Robinson has been Shumlin's legal counsel since he took office in January.

She gained public notice 14 years ago when she led the legal team that argued the Baker case, which led to civil unions for gay and lesbian couples.
