FLOYDADA – Wade Jackson, the 110th Judicial District Attorney representing Floyd, Briscoe, Dickens and Motley counties, has announced his retirement.
Jackson, who has served as DA since January 2017, sent Governor Greg Abbott a letter this week making the retirement official. Jackson, whose office is based in the Floyd County Courthouse, is in his second 4-year term set to expire on December 31, 2024. In the letter to the Governor Jackson says he is stepping away due to personal reasons.
The 110th district does not have an assistant district attorney, so Jackson has asked the governor that the appointment process for a new district attorney be expedited.
Jackson’s legal assistant Penny Ogden retired at the end of 2022 after a 40-year career in the position.
