On behalf of the State Bar of Georgia, I would like to express congratulations to Justice David E. Nahmias of Dunwoody on his recent installation as presiding justice of the Supreme Court of Georgia.

Presiding Justice Nahmias will be well served in his new position by his 27 years of experience as a member of the State Bar of Georgia, including the past nine years as a justice on the Supreme Court. His exceptional record in public service includes prior experience as U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Georgia, as deputy assistant U.S. attorney general and, at the beginning of his career, as a law clerk for Judge Laurence Silberman of the U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Columbia and for Justice Antonin Scalia of the U.S. Supreme Court.

The State Bar of Georgia looks forward to continuing our strong working relationship with the Supreme Court of Georgia under the leadership of new Chief Justice Harold D. Melton and Presiding Justice Nahmias.

Kenneth B. Hodges III President, State Bar of Georgia
