Two of the three Superior Court judges in the Paulding Judicial Circuit have recused from a citizen’s effort to unseal court filings in House Speaker Glenn Richardson’s divorce case. The only judge that’s left to hear the matter is the one whose actions prompted the citizen’s motion-Judge James R. Osborne.
Atlanta attorney Gerald R. Weber Jr. last month filed a motion in Paulding County on behalf of Rome government gadfly George Anderson to unseal Richardson’s divorce file. Susan Richardson filed for divorce from Glenn Richardson on Feb. 6. The case was sealed the same day by Osborne, who wrote in his sealing order that “the harm otherwise resulting to the interest of the parties and their children … outweighs any public interest” in seeing the records.
