Mark Formby, a state representative from Picayune, will serve a term that begins April 15 and runs through 2022, The Clarion-Ledger reported.

Formby, 60, was instrumental in the 2012 passage of a law that tightened compensation rules for injured workers, the newspaper said. He will succeed Liles Williams in the nearly $120,000-a-year post.

Formby must resign from his House seat, which he has held since 1993. Republican Gov. Phil Bryant will call a special election to fill the District 108 seat in Pearl River County.
