A judge has awarded Craig Lutz attorney’s fees in his challenge of a petition to recall his election to the Hall County Board of Commissioners last year. Barring a successful appeal, Kevin Kanieski, chairman of the effort to recall Lutz, will have to pay $12,587.96 to Lutz’s lawyer, Paul Stanley, according to an order filed in Hall County Superior Court by Judge Tom Davis. Stanley provided a copy of the order at the request of The Times.
