DOUGLAS COUNTY, GA — The Judicial Nominating Commission has narrowed the pool of potential replacements for Douglas County Chief Superior Court Judge David Emerson, who's stepping down and retiring and the end of the year.

Two attorneys out of the six who interviewed for the position have been recommended for the chief judge spot: Juvenile Court Associate Judge Talia J. Nurse or Chief Assistant District Attorney Deah B. Warren.

Emerson announced his decision to resign in late October to spend more time with family after serving as a judge for 31 years. The JNC accepted applications from local attorneys to fill his seat through late November, interviewed the six attorneys and will now recommend Nurse and Warren to Gov. Brian Kemp for further interviews.

Nurse is a University of Georgia and Southern Me
