section update Criminal Law Section By Jessica Stern Stern Law LLC [email protected] T his Bar year, the Criminal Law Section has been able to provide a CLE Speaker Program to our members every month. The Board carefully planned programs that are relevant to both Criminal Defense and Prosecution practitioners, along with those who practice in both the State and Federal court systems. With registration, you are provided a delicious lunch and beautiful midtown view from the Jones Day conference room, where fellow practitioners and friends (old and new) sit together sharing an intimate and beneficial dialogue. While many of our members have known each other for years, new members are warmly welcomed and easily find comfort and value within the group. If you missed January’s Georgia and SCOTUS Case Law Update from the acclaimed Don Samuel, you surely don’t want to make that mistake again! (To receive the handout and notes on the session, email me at [email protected].) I would love to see new members get involved and attend one of our upcoming programs: @ The Official News Publication of the Atlanta Bar Association February 11th: Pre-Indictment and Grand Jury Practice (featuring Attorneys Ken Hodges and Bill Dillon) March 11th: Social Event: Meet the New Judges April 8th: Pardons and Expungement Practice May 13th: Jake Waldrop “Truth and Justice” Awards Ceremony January/February 2015 THE ATLANTA LAWYER 27
