	Commonwealth's Attorney - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Commonwealth's Attorney is the title given to the elected felony prosecutor in states that are officially called "commonwealth." The Commonwealths of Kentucky, and Virginia use this title while other states refer to these prosecutor's as District Attorney, or State's Attorney for their felony prosecutors.
		The role of Commonwealth's Attorneys, District Attorneys, and State' Attorneys should not be confused with the role of a County Attorney or City Attorney whose authority is usually limited by individual state constitutions to non-felony infractions or misdemeanor cases.
		Commonwealth's Attorneys are elected in their separate jurisdictions in both Virginia and Kentucky.
