An assistant attorney general from the Iowa Department of Justice has been appointed as a judge on the Iowa Court of Appeals. Yesterday (Wednesday), Gov. Kim Reynolds announced Tyler Buller of Johnston would fill the vacancy created by Judge David May’s appointment to the Iowa Supreme Court. Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller says, “Tyler is extremely talented and has done a tremendous job since coming to our office in 2012. He brings to the court a strong background in criminal appellate and prosecution work. He has advised and trained local prosecutors and served the judicial system on many committees and task forces. His devotion to public service will serve the court well.” Buller earned his undergraduate degree from Drake University and his law degree from the University of Iowa College of Law.
