Carolyn King Justus is an American politician, and a Republican member of the North Carolina General Assembly representing the state's one hundred seventeenth House district, including constituents in Henderson and Transylvania counties. A resident of Hendersonville, North Carolina, Justus is currently (2003-2004 session) serving in her first term in the state House.

Justus, the widow of former Assemblyman Larry T. Justus, was appointed to the General Assembly to fill the seat of her deceased husband, who died shortly before the 2002 legislative elections. His name remained on the ballot and he received a majority of votes cast, so the local Republican party appointed Carolyn Justus to the empty seat. She had previously served as a legislative aid to her husband.
