"Markette Baker is an excellent litigator who is admired and respected by her peers throughout Georgia, and over the years, she has shown remarkable leadership as Troup County Solicitor- General," Governor Brian Kemp said of the appointment. "By appointing Markette to the Coweta Judicial Circuit Superior Court, I am confident that she will seamlessly adapt to her new role and serve Georgians well for many years to come."
Baker is a graduate of Converse College and Mississippi College School of Law, and was elected as Troup County Solicitor-General in 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2016.
