House approves 5 new judgeships

The Georgia House unanimously approved legislation Thursday to create five new Superior Court judgeships - including one each for Cobb, Paulding and Coweta judicial circuits.

HB 1073, which passed 163-0, also authorizes a new judgeship in the Blue Ridge Judicial Circuit and the Houston Judicial Circuit, home county of Gov. Sonny Perdue.

The bill now goes to the Senate.

If these judgeships are approved, Cobb County will have 10 Superior Court judges. Coweta will have six, and Houston, Blue Ridge and Paulding will each have three.
