OAG 78-33 is cited in the decision to support the interpretation that the term 'county court' as used in the statutes regarding local option elections should be understood to mean 'county judge/executive'. This interpretation is based on the opinion that the General Assembly intended for the county judge/executive to be the acting authority in these matters, rather than the county court performing a strictly judicial function.
OAG 78-33 was Followed by OAG 78-109
