Timothy Neil Philpot (Tim Philpot, born March 18, 1951[not verified in body]) is an American lawyer, author and judge. He was elected to serve as a family court circuit judge in Fayette County, Kentucky in 2004, and again in 2006 and 2014, in the latter case with a term expiring in January 2023.[needs update] He previously served as a Republican member of the Kentucky Senate from 1993 to 1998[1][third-party source needed] and as the president of Christian Business Men's Connection from 1996 to 2003.[2][third-party source needed] As a judge, Philpot has been criticized for making controversial statements about LGBT people[3][4][better source needed] but also has been defended as not allowing his social views to influence his judicial decisions.[5] Philpot is an author of a semi-autobiographical novel drawing on cases he has heard and his experiences as a judge, explored from his socially conservative Methodist perspective.[6][7]
