A new legal battle challenging former State Bar of Georgia Executive Director Jeff Davis’ election to the Georgia Court of Appeals is brewing in Fulton County State Court.

On Monday, Cobb County Magistrate Judge Tabitha Ponder, who Davis defeated in the nonpartisan May 21 election, joined forces with attorney Randolph Frails of Frails & Wilson in Augusta to file a complaint contesting the result of the statewide judicial race.
