that the only time a dottict attorney a required to be
present in Superior Court is when a criminal case is being
tned before a jury, and sometimes lor special bearings
Floyd also had records which showed that tn Catoosa
County during 1970. criminal caret before » •«*
heard on four days two in March and two tn September. In
(We County, he added, caws bn which the district attor
ney was required to be present during 1970 were heard on

Fkiyd added "I reabre that grand pity and other hearings
take up wme time, but I don't believe the work toad is to
great but that the district attorney could also handle the
duties of the so be it or of the Stale Court of Chattooga
County," ■
Floyd parnted out that the above Ma times are matters
of pubbe record, and cam be checked by any interested
person
Rep Floyd said he would like to again punt out that
the district attorney oi l Superior Court which has two
judges has the authority to hire an assistant, paid for by the
Mate <&..»;
"Twenty-eight circuits in the stale are eligible for this
service," he Mid “At least 18 of them have taken advantage
of this stat* law,”
Floyd said he wanted to clear up a matter bn which
there may be some confusion
“I would like to emphaurr that the salary of the
solicitor of the Stale Court of Chattooga County is $5,200
a year The cummrswoner did author i« an additional SBOO
to hue someone to help bring the paper work up to date
