Monroe County leader to appoint county attorney

TOMPKINSVILLE

Who will serve the unexpired term of the Monroe County Attorney?

The office became vacant when Tompkinsville attorney Douglas Carter died unexpectedly Oct. 25.

The duty of appointing someone to fill the vacancy falls to the county’s judge-executive.

“The appointment is made at his discretion,” said Allison Gardner Martin, a spokesperson for Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway.

Monroe County Judge-Executive Wilbur Graves can appoint whomever he wishes to the office, Martin said.

“I will take into consideration the ones who have asked me. I’ve been contacted by some of the local attorneys and I’ve had numerous calls from supporters of all of them,” said Graves. “I will need to talk to each of those individuals to see if they would be interested in taking the position.”

Graves’ office was closed Tuesday due to Carter’s funeral. Graves said he will try to appoint someone to fill the vacancy as soon as possible.

Even though he has the sole responsibility of appointing someone to the office, Graves said he wanted to check with state officials first about the task before taking any action.

“I didn’t want to make a hasty decision on this,” he said. “I told them I would like to get someone in place this week.”

Carter was elected county attorney in November 2006 and had slightly more than two years left to serve. He had previously served in that position from 1989 to 2002, and served as county judge from 1974 to 1986.

He had also served as city attorney for Tompkinsville, Fountain Run and Gamaliel during his legal career.
