The Law Office of the Pennington County Public Defender’s Post

The Jeff W. Davis Memorial Courtroom is a fitting reflection of Judge Davis's vision throughout his years of service. His presence will be dearly missed, but never forgotten.

Courtroom C2 in the Pennington County Courthouse is now the Jeff W. Davis Memorial Courtroom. A dedication ceremony to rename the courtroom was held on Thursday, June 20, 2024. Former Judge Jeff W. Davis served on the bench for the Seventh Judicial Circuit in Rapid City for 43 years, making him one of the longest serving judges in state history. Judge Davis was integral to several courthouse addition and remodeling projects, including the recent renovation of Courtroom C2 to reflect a historically accurate courtroom in the building. His daughter, Megan Fankhauser, spoke during the dedication ceremony, as well as Judge Craig A. Pfeifle with the Seventh Judicial Circuit. #SouthDakotaCourts
