Following are news brief items from the Fort Smith metro.
Crawford County Prosecuting Attorney Kevin Holmes has been nominated to the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Arkansas.
I am limited to what I can say right now other than I appreciate President Trump considering me for the position and I look forward to the confirmation process.
If the nomination is approved by the U.S. Senate, Holmes would succeed Duane Kees who resigned in January 2020.
Holmes was elected in November 2022 as the Crawford County prosecuting attorney and is a founding member of Van Buren-based Hopkins & Holmes law firm.
