Cobb County State Court Judge David Darden began a two-year term as chief judge this month, replacing Judge Toby Prodgers, who served four years as chief.
“I missed one meeting,” Darden joked when asked about how his colleagues came to elect him as chief. The tradtion in Cobb has been for the most senior judge who hasn’t served as chief before to take a turn.
The role adds some administrative responsibilities, public appearances and meetings with other county agencies, but it will not change his court calendar. “We’re not going to make any sudden changes,” Darden said. “When we change chief judges here in our court, it’s pretty seamless. It’s not a big transition.”
