Abstract

The Act removes the requirement that the Georgia Supreme Court must review and adopt the standards and rules set forth for the Prosecuting Attorneys Qualifications Commission. This removal effectively withdraws the approval power given to the Supreme Court by the original Prosecuting Attorneys Qualifications Commission Senate Bill (SB) 92. This Act was brought as the result of an administrative decision released by the Georgia Supreme Court on November 22, 2023, in which the Court asserted that it did not have the authority to approve the acts of the Commission.
