Charlotte- As of December 1, 2005, Judge Graham C. Mullen is no longer Chief Judge in the district. He has taken “senior” status. Judge Richard L. Voorhees will serve as Chief Judge until June 2006 when Judge Robert J. Conrad will take over the administrative duties of the court. Judge Mullen will continue presiding over his civil docket and retain his current criminal docket. Asheville- Judge Lacy H. Thornburg recently returned from a wonderful vacation in South America. He toured Chile, Peru, Argentina and the nightclubs of Brazil! U.S. Probation Officer Robert Ferguson left the ranks of bachelorhood in October. |
