Justice Johnson is retiring at the end of the year and so far, there are four lawyers who have announced they are running for his seat. I could tell you about all of them, but I won’t. Christopher McFadden is, by far, the most qualified.
McFadden has practiced primarily before the Court of Appeals of Georgia and the Supreme Court of Georgia for twenty years. He has handled a wide variety of civil, criminal, and domestic appeals. Over eighty of his cases have resulted in published opinions, most by the Court of Appeals of Georgia. He has made dozens of oral arguments, most to the Court of Appeals of Georgia. He is a founder and past chair of the Appellate Practice Section of the State Bar of Georgia.
Not to mention, he’s co-author of Georgia Appellate Practice, which is the book on appellate practice.
