DECATUR, Ga. - Authorities say a Decatur city court clerk has been arrested and charged with felony theft.

Assistant City Manager Andrea Aold said in a statement Friday that the suspect, 37-year-old Sonequa James, has been suspended without pay and that her termination is pending.

Officials say James has worked for the city since 2006.

Aold said in the statement that city officials intend to prosecute James to the fullest extent possible under the law.

Jail records state that James has been booked into the DeKalb County Jail and is charged with theft by taking. The records say the charge stems from an incident on Feb. 7.
