Congratulations to Attorney James Ramger on his recent swearing in to the Pitt County Bar.
Mr. Ramger practiced law in the St. Louis, Missouri area for a couple of years before relocating to North Carolina.
He will be working for the Ley Law Firm and Attorney Clark Jones. (Mr. Jones is pictured holding the Bible during the administration of the oath.)
Best of luck to Mr. Ramger in this new endeavor in the practice of law. ⚖️

They say all good things come to an end.

Congratulations to clerk Melanie Whaley Dunlow on her retirement from the Pitt County Clerk's office. 🎉 👑

She's worked in our clerk's office for 18 years, and also had 16 years of service with the public school system.

I have enjoyed working with Melanie in the courtroom. She has been one of our clerks handling paperwork for first appearances in criminal court.

We will miss you lots. Thank you for your service and your hard work.

It's been a busy week at the Pitt County Courthouse, and it is only Tuesday. ⚖️

The week got off to a great start with the swearing in of a newly licensed attorney, Mrs. Maddy Hembree, who is also a new Assistant District Attorney.

I administered both oaths to Mrs. Hembree before court began on Monday morning. She had been working for our elected District Attorney, Faris Dixon, while waiting for her bar results, so she has plenty of experience in the courtroom.

I believe Mrs. Hembree will be an asset to our District Attorney and also to our citizens in Pitt County as she seeks to faithfully administer justice in her new role as Assistant District Attorney.

Pictured with ADA Hembree are her husband, Eli, and District Attorney Faris Dixon.

Our youngest played her first basketball game today! 🏀🏀🏀

She did a great job of staying with her man and even made a basket. Hoping she loves the game as much as her sisters do.

Thanks to Coach Ashley Allen for his instruction and patience. Looking forward to the rest of this Upward season.

I hope these officers will stay safe and set a strong example of service and commitment to our local community.
