Chatham Judge Seeks Sanctions Against GCO

Chatham County Probate Judge Thomas Bordeaux has filed a motion with the Court of Appeals of Georgia, seeking sanctions against GCO for filing a “frivolous appeal.” The motion apparently was filed in retribution against GCO because GCO sought to force Bordeaux to follow Georgia law in issuing GWLs in the time required by statute. The motion comes on the heels of Bordeaux’s motion in the Superior Court of Chatham County for an award of attorney’s fees against GCO for suing Bordeaux in the first place. The motion, and GCO’s response, can be found here.
