North Carolina Supreme Court Associate Justice Mike Morgan has officially announced his run for governor.
The announcement comes after he announced in May he would not seek reelection to the court in 2024, because he was thinking about running.
Morgan stepped down on September 4 and Governor Roy Cooper appointed Judge Allison Riggs on Monday to replace him.
He was on the bench for more than 30 years, serving as an administrative law judge, a Wake County District Court judge and a Superior Court judge before being elected to the Supreme Court in 2016.
