Georgia Senator Mitch Seabaugh proposed to cut 19 superior court
judges on Wednesday. If approved, S.B. 485 would cut the number
of judges in the state to 186, and save the state $14 million.
The state is having to look for ways to cut $1.1 billion from
its next budget.
Seabaugh said that the state Constitution allows for the General
Assembly to eliminate judgeships.
