EUREKA -- Tim Stoen, for the last two years the right-hand man to District Attorney Paul Gallegos, is looking to become county counsel for Mendocino County.
Gallegos said Stoen told him of his intent to seek the position, and Gallegos gave him his blessing.
"He is seeking that post," Gallegos told the Times-Standard Thursday.
Stoen has been handling a number of high profile cases for Gallegos, including the controversial suit against Pacific Lumber Co. and the case against Fortuna Councilwoman Debi August.
Gallegos said Stoen's leaving would create a hardship, but nothing the department couldn't overcome.
"Truthfully, we don't have the luxury of not getting the job done," Gallegos said.
