Associated Press
McCOMB, Miss. Keith Starrett, a circuit court judge presiding over Pike, Lincoln and Walthall counties, will take the bench in the backlogged U.S. Southern District Court for Mississippi after a confirmation by the U.S. Senate late Saturday night.
U.S. Sen. Trent Lott praised the Senate for the unanimous decision.
"Judge Keith Starrett is an outstanding jurist who will make an excellent addition to the Southern District Court for Mississippi," said Lott, R-Miss. "I was pleased that my colleagues acted unanimously to approve this nomination."
