SR450: SR450 Minor, Mallory; congratulate

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to state law. It honors Mallory Minor, who currently serves as court administrator and clerk of court for the Municipal Court of the City of Stonecrest, for receiving the 2025 Yellow Rose Nikki T. Randall Servant Leadership Award, an honor given each year during Women's History Month by the Georgia Women's Legislative Caucus. The resolution recounts Minor's career, including her prior role as magistrate clerk of court for the Magistrate Court of Rockdale County, where she was the first African American woman to hold that position and helped launch community programs such as a youth law camp and mentorship initiatives. The Senate formally congratulates her and directs the Secretary of the Senate to send her a copy of the resolution.
