The Honorable
Judge Cedric T. Leslie announced recently his intention
to run for Superior Court Judge of the Macon Judicial
Circuit.
The election will be held on
November 7,
2006.
Judge Leslie has
presided over the bench as Associate Judge of
Civil &
Magistrate Court of Bibb County for the past year and a
half.
Previously, he owned his own firm (Law Office of
Cedric Thomas Leslie) for eighteen
years.
He and his wife
Helen, have three grown children, Elizabeth, Quintress,
and Thomas.
When asked his
opinion of Drug
Court, Judge Leslie remarked “I
think it’s a good idea. A lot of judges
don’t like it, but I think Tommy Day Wilcox has created
one of the best drug courts in the
state.”
Judge Leslie has
presided over a myriad of cases and feels that he is the
most qualified for the seat. “After 18 years,
I have more of a variety of experience in Superior Court
than all the other opponents put together,” he
said
