CONSTABLE LUKE PALMER RESIGNATION LETTER.PDF

Letter of Resignation 
Dear Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, 
 
For the past three years I have done my best to balance the responsibility of the office 
of Constable and providing for myself and family in this economic climate. In November 2023 
my family experienced an event that made providing for my family and being able to keep up 
with the ever increasing workload at the court an impossible balancing act. I alerted court staff 
of my situation and went on a temporary leave to take some time to figure out if I could 
continue to serve as a Constable. It has been a difficult decision, but I know now I cannot 
continue in my role as a constable, and it is in the best interest of the public, my family, and my 
family’s safety and well-being that I resign my position as Constable for the Highland Precinct 
effective February 27, 2024. I would like to schedule an exit interview with one or more of you 
to discuss my experience serving these last 3 years and how to best support the next 
individual to take up my position, so they will be able to serve the public to the best of their 
ability.  
Sincerely, 
Constable Luke Palmer
