Events
The Barristers' Association of Philadelphia Inc. held a free, virtual "Know Your Rights Town Hall" open to the public.
Moderated by KYW reporter Cherri Gregg, panelists American Civil Liberties Union of Pennsylvania executive director Reggie Shuford, Philadelphia Police inspector Derrick E. Wood, Mincey Fitzpatrick Ross founding partner Kevin Mincey, and attorney Deborah Watson-Stokes educated participants as to their rights when interacting with the police on the streets, in a traffic stop and while protesting, drawing upon the recent events in Philadelphia as examples.
Elected and Appointed
Pennsylvania Bar Association president David E. Schwager named 18 Pennsylvania lawyers to the 2020-21 class of the association's Bar Leadership Institute.
This year's BLI co-chairs are Stephanie F. Latimore of the Legislative Reference Bureau of Pennsylvania in Harrisburg and Michael J. McDonald of McDonald & MacGregor in Scranton. Both Latimore and McDonald served in a number of PBA leadership roles.
To apply for the BLI, candidates had to demonstrate leadership ability, commit to attendance and participation in the required events, be currently licensed to practice law in Pennsylvania, be a PBA member, and be age 40 years or younger or practiced five years or less.
The BLI was originally developed by Arthur L. Piccone of Kingston in 1995-96 during his year as PBA president to strengthen the PBA's ongoing efforts to recruit and develop leaders of the association.
The first chair of the institute, Gretchen A. Mundorff of Connellsville, relaunched the BLI when she became the 2010-11 president of the PBA.
Its current purpose is to inform participants on the day-to-day operations, governance, resources and staffing of the association, as well as provide introductions to its various leadership opportunities.
