A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

COMMENDING THE HONORABLE JULIEN WEINBERG, JUDGE OF PROBATE FOR CLARENDON COUNTY, FOR HIS OUTSTANDING PUBLIC SERVICE AND EXTENDING BEST WISHES FOR A HAPPY RETIREMENT.

Whereas, the Honorable Julien Weinberg, Judge of Probate for Clarendon County for the past ten years, has announced his retirement effective May 30, 1995; and

Whereas, Judge Weinberg was the first full-time probate judge in the county when he took office; before that time, the offices of probate judge and clerk of court were held by one person; Judge Weinberg, with Deputy Judge Kathy Geddings, has established an efficient system for issuing marriage licenses and handling estates and conservatorships; and

Whereas, Judge Weinberg has rendered outstanding service to the citizens of Clarendon County for many years; he was elected Mayor of Manning in 1960 and served for two terms; during his tenure as mayor, he was elected president of the South Carolina Municipal Association Division for Small Towns; the association presented him the Public Service Award in 1967; later he was elected city councilman for two terms; he also served as master-in-equity and special referee for the county beginning in 1981; and

Whereas, he was President of the South Carolina Association of Probate Judges for 1994, having served in other offices of that association before his election as president; and

Whereas, he is a graduate of Davidson College and the University of South Carolina School of Law; he was admitted to practice before the state and federal courts in 1958; he is a member of the Clarendon County Bar Association, the South Carolina Bar, and the American Judicature Society; he practiced law in Manning for twenty-eight years, giving up his practice to offer for probate judge in 1984; and

Whereas, he has been an outstanding and dedicated public servant whose contributions are greatly appreciated, and we are delighted to have this opportunity to accord him special recognition. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, commends the Honorable Julien Weinberg, Judge of Probate for Clarendon County, for his outstanding public service and extends him best wishes for a happy retirement.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Judge Weinberg.
