Difference between revisions of "Child endangering Cobb County judge prepares for senior judgeship"

=Governor Kemp To Approve The Application=

=Governor Kemp To Approve The Application=

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.

A perhaps more dangerous and less known loophole exists now in light of the “new” Equitable Caregiver Act, which was enacted in 2019. “As you of course know I ran in the recent election for Superior Court Judge here in Cobb County, and my running was inspired by a case I was involved in where the judge completely misused the Equitable Caregiver Act to put a child in a very dangerous situation,” said McMaster. “I am of course referring to ‘[https://mcmasterforcobb.com/why-matt The Lion’s Den]’ case published on my campaign website. That was where a combination of judges, including Judge Flournoy, enabled the placement of a 15-year-old girl (now 17) into the home of a 42-year-old unmarried man, not blood related to her and who had a history of [https://thewikilaw.org/wiki/images/1/1b/Cobb_Superior_21101795_Affidavit_Redacted.pdf abusing the mother].
