Even as Gov. Nathan Deal swears in his last pick for the Georgia Supreme Court on Tuesday, short lists await on his desk for three more open judicial positions around the state.
The Judicial Nominating Commission has sent the governor seven names on three short lists for openings that remain. The vacancies are in the Superior Courts of the Flint and Piedmont Judicial Circuits and the State Court of Dougherty County in the South Georgia city of Albany. Those chosen will add to what is already a record number of judicial appointments made by one governor. Deal already has named five justices for the Supreme Court and 15 judges for the Georgia Court of Appeals.
