Judge Prather Retires After 46 Years | Augusta Georgia News

After 46 years of service — including stints as both solicitor general and judge — Muscogee County’s longest-serving state court judge, Andy Prather, is retiring November 30. Though he just won re-election in August, the 73-year-old says serving the community has been his greatest honor, second only to marrying his wife Susan. His departure opens two new judicial seats, as the General Assembly recently approved adding a third judge. Governor Kemp will now appoint replacements, setting the stage for fresh leadership and a pivotal transition under incoming Chief Judge Pete Temesgen.
