All

four judges in the Griffin Judicial Circuit have

recused themselves from attorney James Webb's

libel suit against The Citizen.

"The

standard practice of Superior Court judges in the

Griffin Judicial Circuit is to recuse themselves

from cases which involve attorneys practicing in

the circuit," stated the order filed March

15 in Fayette County Superior Court. "All

plaintiffs in this action are in good standing

with the Georgia Bar Association, and practice

law within the Griffin Judicial Circuit."

Superior

Court Clerk Bud Ballard said Tuesday that the

court administrator for the circuit would be

charged with taking the necessary steps to have

another judge assigned to the case.
