Does a state attorney-general control the state's district attorneys?

He/she has a staff of attorneys working in his/her office that handle day to day matters, but all under the auspices of the Attorney General. In some States, those lower-level attorneys are called district attorneys, although historically that term connotes State attorneys who enforce criminal laws.
