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.
