On February 21, 2009, Governor Hayley Barbour, recognizing his skill and experience in Chancery Court, appointed Chuck as Chancery Court Judge in the Sixteenth Judicial District of Jackson County to fill the vacancy of Randy “Bubba” Pierce, who accepted an appointment to the Mississippi Supreme Court. Chuck was re-elected to this position in 2010. After serving the duration of this term, he retired from the bench to re-enter private practice.
Since stepping down from the bench, Chuck has enjoyed a thriving Chancery practice. Additionally, given his prior judicial experience, he is frequently retained as a mediator or arbitrator to preside over contract disputes, divorces, and any other issues requiring alternative dispute resolution.
Chuck currently resides in Ocean Springs, Mississippi with his wife. He enjoys coaching youth sports, attending local sporting events, and spending time with his family.
