Edward Charles Jacobs, known as Charles Jacobs (born May 13, 1970), is a lawyer from Springhill, Louisiana, who is one of the six judges, all Republicans except for one vacancy, of the Louisiana 26th Judicial District Court, encompassing neighboring Bossier and Webster parishes in the northwestern corner of his state. Jacobs ran without opposition to succeed the retiring Division D judge, John M. Robinson, in the nonpartisan blanket primary held on November 4, 2014, in conjunction with general elections in the other forty-nine states.
Judge Jacobs is the son of Edward Craney Jacobs (born August 1943), the dean emeritus of Liberal Arts and a former professor of English at Louisiana Tech University in Ruston. He received the Bronze Star while serving in the United States Army during the Vietnam War. His mother, the former Karen Rae Langpap (born August 1941), formerly of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, is an English professor at Louisiana Tech. Both of his parents received their terminal degrees from Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama, where they resided at the time of Jacobs' birth.
Jacobs has three siblings, Elizabeth, Margaret, and Andrew. Andrew Jacobs, a graduate of Louisiana State University and Louisiana State University Law Center in Baton Rouge, has been since 2009 an assistant district attorney for the 26th Judicial District Court.
