TECUMSEH, Neb. (AP) - The Johnson County attorney has announced that she's leaving her elected post for a new job in Lincoln.
Nebraska City radio station KNCY reports that Julie Smith said Tuesday that her resignation is effective June 19. She says she'll continue to live in Cook.
Smith did an internship at the Johnson County attorney's office while in law school in 2003 and then joined the office as a deputy county attorney in 2004. She was elected in November to her third term as county attorney.
Her brother Rick Smith is deputy county attorney, and he will be the acting county attorney. The county board is expected to appoint someone within 45 days to serve the rest of Julie Smith's term.
