O.C.G.A. 15-10-20.1 (2010)
15-10-20.1. Qualifying in absentia for magistrates serving on active military duty


(a) Any elected chief magistrate or elected magistrate who is performing ordered military duty, as defined in Code Section 38-2-279, shall be eligible for reelection in any primary or general election which may be held to elect a successor for the next term of office, and may qualify in absentia as a candidate for reelection to such office. The performance of ordered military duty shall not create a vacancy in such office during the term for which such judge was elected.
