Hello All,
This is to remind you we have a CLE Luncheon at the Skills Center this Friday, March 16, at noon. Gary Colley will present a one-hour seminar on conservation easements. This presentation has been approved by the WSBA for one CLE credit. The cost for the CLE is $20. Checks are to be payable to Clallam-Jefferson Pro Bono Lawyers. Lunch is $9.50. Checks are to be payable to Skills Center.
Please note also I will discuss briefly the proposed amendment to the Admission to Practice Rules that would allow nonlawyer legal technicians to provide certain legal services. I intend to request authorization by the CCBA to send letters to each Washington Supreme Court Justice and to Stan Bastian, WSBA President, expressing our Bar’s opposition to the proposed rule.
Earlier, I circulated, via email, material regarding this matter, including pro and con essays from the Bar News and a copy of the proposed rule. I encourage you to read that material in advance of this Friday’s luncheon. If you did not receive that email, or wish to receive it again, please let me know.
Thank you.
Simon Barnhart
