Judge Michael M. Ater serves as judge of Ross County’s Drug Court Program. This program offers a treatment-based alternative to prison for low-level, non-violent offenders with substance abuse issues. Through comprehensive supervision, random drug testing, treatment services, frequent interaction with the judge, and immediate sanctions and incentives, offenders are given an opportunity to turn around their lives and become drug free. By becoming drug free, they reduce the likelihood of future reincarceration.
