Warren County attorney jobs allow neighboring residents

Effective immediately, three Warren County offices no longer require living within Warren County. Assistant district attorneys, assistant public defenders, and assistant county attorneys can instead live in an adjoining county within New York State. This exception excludes the first assistant public defender, who takes over when the public defender is absent or unable to serve. Residency rules for that position, other offices, and other counties remain unchanged.
