JUDICIAL
It’s been a busy year working to advance our Section’s two goals: (1)
to make sure that all judges, no matter their years of service, have
the tools and support they need to serve in a sustainable way and
(2) to foster productive bench-bar relationships. To those ends, the
Section has sponsored The Legal Runaround 5K Race Walk and Tot
Trot to support the Atlanta Bar Foundation as well as the Atlanta
Bar Association’s End of Summer Band Party; in October 2019, we
cosponsored a joint social with the Labor & Employment, Litigation,
and Estate Planning Sections at Hotel Claremont’s Roof Top. On
November 11, 2019, the Judicial Section partnered with the Public
Interest Law Section to co-sponsor a lunch and learn on the topics of
secondary trauma and wellness; as a community service project, the
Judicial Section provided books to adoptive families at the Juvenile
Court’s National Adoption Day on November 23, 2019.
