Commissioners appoint solicitors for Newton County Probate Court
Summary
The board unanimously approved resolution R040726 to name Lee R. Moss LLC, associate Taylor Carter, and Kara Hooks as solicitors for Newton County Probate Court to ensure coverage when the district attorney's office cannot prosecute traffic cases.
The Newton County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a resolution (R040726) to appoint solicitors for the probate court to handle traffic matters when the district attorney's office cannot prosecute them.
A judge explained the county's need for appointed solicitors and recommended naming the firm Lee R. Moss LLC, Taylor Carter (associate), and Kara Hooks to provide continuity and coverage for busier dockets. "That allows for continuity of services, in the traffic court of Newton County," the judge said.
Commissioner Edwards said the probate court is a "citizen-centric, taxpayer-centric organization" and urged the board to make the department as robust as possible moving forward. The resolution passed on a unanimous vote.
