A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND COMMEND THE HONORABLE PHILLIP K. SINCLAIR, FAMILY COURT JUDGE FOR THE SOUTH CAROLINA SEVENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT, UPON THE OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT AFTER YEARS OF EXEMPLARY SERVICE, AND TO WISH HIM CONTINUED SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives have learned that the Honorable Phillip K. Sinclair will begin a well-deserved retirement after years of dedicated service to the citizens of South Carolina, including being a distinguished and highly-regarded family court judge for the Seventh Judicial Circuit since 2010; and

Whereas, born in Union in 1953, Phillip Sinclair is the son of William R. and Elsie L. Sinclair, and he earned a degree in English from Wofford College in 1975 and a juris doctorate from the University of South Carolina School of Law in 1978; and

Whereas, after graduation from law school, Mr. Sinclair clerked for a circuit court judge and then served as an assistant solicitor for three years; and

Whereas, following his service in the solicitor's office, he worked in private law practice and served the citizens of District 35 in Spartanburg with distinction from 2001 until 2006 as a representative in the South Carolina House of Representatives; and

Whereas, in 2010, Judge Sinclair was elected to the court by the South Carolina General Assembly and was most recently re-elected in February 2019; and

Whereas, a faithful member of Cedar Spring Baptist Church, he has served the congregation as a deacon. With dedication to his community, he has served as a member of the board of directors of the Charles Lea Center and of the Spartanburg County Board of Disabilities and Special Needs; and

Whereas, together with his beloved wife of nearly forty-seven years, Vicki Reynolds Butler, he reared three fine children: Phillip, John, and William; and

Whereas, grateful for his many years of distinguished service to the citizens of South Carolina, the South Carolina House of Representatives takes great pleasure in extending best wishes to Phillip Sinclair, our friend and colleague, as he transitions to a richly deserved retirement and the unhurried pace of the days ahead, and the members wish him many years of enjoyment in his well-earned retirement. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and commend the Honorable Phillip K. Sinclair, family court judge for the South Carolina Seventh Judicial Circuit, upon the occasion of his retirement after years of exemplary service, and wish him continued success and happiness in all his future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Honorable Phillip K. Sinclair.
