The inaugural members of the Georgia Business Court Rules Commission are, left to right, top: Jessica Perry Corley, William P. “Will” Horkan, Lester B. Johnson III, Usha Rodrigues. Bottom: J. Stephen “Steve” Schuster, Rocco E. Testani, Robert A. “Bob” Watts, and Joel O. Wooten.
Making the rules will be one of the first tasks for Jones Day partner Walter W. Davis when he takes his new job in January as the first judge of the Georgia Statewide Business Court.
To help write those rules, Davis has recruited eight lawyers to serve on an inaugural rules commission, taking pains to find a balance of age, experience, background, and perspective from different parts of the state. He’s included big firm business litigators, smaller firm partners, a law professor and a judge.
