The Indiana Supreme Court issued the order appointing Lang on Oct. 27 in In the Matter of Appointment of a Judge Pro Tempore in the Lake Superior Court, Criminal Div. 3, 21S-MS-487. Lang will remain in the appointed position until further order of the court.
Boswell, 72, had served on the Lake County bench since her 2005 appointment by then-Gov. Mitch Daniels. She built a long career in public service and is remembered by colleagues as hardworking and compassionate.
Lang, a graduate of the Chicago-Kent College of Law, took senior status in 2015 after serving more than nine years as a judge on the LaPorte Superior Court. She is currently an adjunct professor at both her alma mater and Notre Dame Law School.
