Russell to seek full term as Baldwin County probate judge

Bay Minette, Alabama - Baldwin County probate judge Tim Russell, announced his candidacy for a full term in the position he currently holds.

Russell, who served as mayor of Foley 1996-2006, will seek the nomination for the bench on the Republican ticket in the primary elections in March. The general election will be held November 6, 2012.

Russell, 63, served as head judge of probate since his appointment in April 2010 by former Governor Bob Riley to complete the term of Adrian Johns, who left office after 15 years. The term expires in January 2013.

In July, the lawyer Harry Jr. Olive of Spanish Fort announced his plans to seek the Republication nomination for the position.

Base salary for the position is $118,948.50 annually for a 6-year term, according to the Probate Office. However, on Oct. 1, Russell will have been on the bench for more than a year and will receive a 1.5-percent pay increase, he said.

Russell, of Foley, previously served as the state revenue commissioner as well as state land commissioner. In July, Gov. Robert Bentley appointed him to lead the Affordable Homeowners Insurance Commission, which works to address the state’s troubled insurance market.

“We are working diligently to stop the rising cost of insurance for the benefit of all Alabamians,” Russell said.

In his campaign, increased services and responsibility to Baldwin County residents are his basic goals, he said.

“I want to bring continued expansion of services through the probate office, which touches every citizen in the county pretty much because every household in the county generally will have at least one of our licenses or one of our services,” he said.

The Baldwin Probate Office generates $30 million to $40 million in annual revenue, Russell said. “The money that we raise for the county, the state and the municipalities — all of that money is the taxpayers’ money and it’s there for services for them,” he said.
