The City Attorney for Johns Creek has been busy in court representing Jere Wood, the Roswell Mayor that was ordered to vacate the Mayor Seat, by a Fulton County judge.

Dick Carothers, the lawyer on the right in the picture, has been paid approximately $25k with Roswell's taxpayer money to defend Jere Wood's case that term limits do not apply to him retroactively.

Dick Carothers is also the City Attorney for nearby, Berkeley Lake (directly south of JC), among other area Cities over the years.

Jere Wood has stated he will appeal the judge's decision, and thus further waste tax dollars on attorney fees.

The Georgia Record was relaunched in June of 2021 and has been extremely successful fighting corruption in the state named after King George of England. The original paper was started in 1899 and published into the early 20th century. In 2020, CDM (Creative Destruction Media) acquired Johns Creek Post and brought back The Georgia Record to better represent the state rather than just Johns Creek News.
