Judge Craig Doran has been replaced by Judge William K. Taylor for the seventh judicial district.
Doran stepped down as the administrative judge after a 1988 photograph was made public of him dressed as a well known public figure of color.
Judge Doran will remain an elected judge.
The seventh district is made up of Cayuga, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Seneca, Steuben, Wayne, and Yates counties.
