Texas Chief Justice Nathan Hecht in August began his term as president of the Conference of Chief Justices (CCJ) and chair of the National Center for State Courts (NCSC) board of directors—positions he assumed in November 2019 after the unexpected death of Iowa Chief Justice Mark Cady, who was holding both positions at the time of his death. The renewal of these positions took place in late July as part of CCJ’s annual meeting, which was held virtually.
“Chief Justice Hecht has earned a national reputation as a judicial leader who is dedicated to access, equity, and transparency in the justice system,” said NCSC president Mary C. McQueen, in a statement. “His work reflects this commitment. He has successfully advocated for increased legal aid for the poor and our military veterans. He promotes public trust and confidence in the justice system by building relationships within the legal community, business groups, community leaders and legislators. The nation’s state court community is fortunate to have Chief Justice Hecht at the helm.”
