Board approves two Justice of the Peace pro tem contracts
Summary
The board approved two pro tem agreements for the Justice of the Peace court—contracts with Karen Smith and Mary Aiden—after a short staff explanation that the agreements are routine.
The Graham County Board of Supervisors approved two agreements March 17 to contract pro tempore judges for the Justice of the Peace court.
Jessica Gurna, speaking for the Justice of the Peace, said the county provided two contracts for approval. Board members described the approvals as a formality; one board member moved to approve an agreement with Karen Smith for pro tem services and another moved to approve an agreement with Mary Aiden (pronunciation supplied in the meeting). Both motions were seconded and approved by voice vote.
A board member praised Judge Palmer for recruiting qualified pro tem judges who will step in for emergencies or planned absences. The meeting transcript shows routine approval with no further questions recorded.
