ENTERPRISE-Outgoing 12th Judicial Circuit District Attorney Tom Anderson was named to supernumerary status by Gov. Kay Ivey Monday, making him the first supernumerary to serve Coffee and Pike counties since

Anderson said Tuesday that he received Ivey’s letter stating that he has qualified for supernumerary status, which indicates that he has retired from the full-time post but will continue to work for the DA’s office where he has served for 19 years on a part-time basis. “A supernumerary district attorney is essentially a retired status — with strings attached,” he said. “A supernumerary can be called upon any time to prosecute cases statewide.

A week later, Anderson begins a new chapter in his legal career as he starts with the Dothan-based law firm of Cherry and Irwin Jan. 23. He and his wife “came right back home” to Enterprise where they have raised their three children, one an EHS junior, one an EHS freshman and a sixth grader at Holly Hill Elementary.

“I had never considered prosecution whatsoever,” he said. “But then I asked myself why this opportunity was being given to me and my wife and I prayed about it before deciding to accept the opportunity.
