Former Cobb County Superior Court judge, the Honorable Robert E. Flournoy, III, retired on December 31, 2022 and has publicly conveyed his intention to take the bench and continue as a “Senior Judge” any day now. The only hoop to jump through at this point is getting Governor Brian Kemp to sign off on Flournoy’s application for the coveted and prestigious role of senior judgeship. Under Georgia law, "Senior judge status . . . shall be acquired by a qualified former judge's applying to the Governor for appointment as senior judge. The Governor shall appoint each qualified applicant as a senior judge." ''See'' [https://law.justia.com/codes/georgia/2021/title-15/chapter-1/section-15-1-9-2/ O.C.G.A. 15-1-9.2]. So what could stop Kemp from lending his golden seal (signature) of approval? To answer that question, perhaps we should understand what keeps Judge Flournoy from being the typical “shoo-in applicant” for the position. | Former Cobb County Superior Court judge, the Honorable Robert E.
