In other news, the soon-to-be Judge S. Brooke Taylor was present at our last meeting and we took the time to give him some feedback on the Superior Court’s proposed schedule. Most of the comments were very positive. If you have further feedback you’ll want to get something to Lindy Clevenger, the Superior Court Administrator as soon as possible. I know the judges will want to have the new schedule in place right after the New Year.
President-elect elections will be at our last meeting of the year on December 21, 2007.
