Osage attorney Tammy Kelley of Cline Williams Write Johnson and Oldfather, LLP, is the new municipal judge for Holyoke, Colorado. She was appointed by the Holyoke City Council on April 16.
Kelley graduated from Ralston High School in Osage County. She earned her law degree from the Sturm College of Law at the University of Denver after pivoting from a career in marketing and business development, according to The Holyoke Enterprise. She moved to Holyoke in 2016. This is her first judgeship.
She told The Holyoke Enterprise that being raised in Ralston, a town with a population of about 355 at the 2000 census, is the reason why she moved to Holyoke, to return to a simpler way of life.
Her practice focuses on estate planning, land transactions and guardianships/conservatorships. Holyoke is the county seat and the most populous municipality of Phillips County, Colorado. Holyoke has a population of about 2,500, according to the 2010 census.
Kelley is the daughter of Sue and Lynn Kelley. Her maternal grandparents are Irene Farell and Verl Covey. Her paternal grandparents are Floyd and Clella Kelley. Her parents said they wanted to thank the Osage Nation for supporting her education.
