2020 STATE OF THE COURT LUNCHEON
Welcome Back! After a long spring and summer, the Eastern District of Michigan Chapter of the Federal Bar Association will kick off its annual Luncheon Program on Wednesday, October 14, 2020. This luncheon will be virtual; it will be the first of its kind and it will be one that you definitely will NOT want to miss!
Our Keynote Speaker is CHIEF JUDGE DENISE PAGE HOOD. In her state of the Court address, Chief Judge Hood will discuss the annual highlights, initiatives and accomplishments of the District Court, along with the challenges faced by the Court as we negotiate through this worldwide pandemic.
Our chapter will also recognize:
-
REGINALD TURNER, winner of the 2020 Cook-Friedman Civility Award and
-
VALERIE NEWMAN, winner of the 2020 2020 Gilman Award and Valerie Newman
Unlike in past years, this year’s State of the Court VIRTUAL Luncheon will be preceded by “Small Group Socials” (SGCs) before the luncheon begins.
These SGCs will be online social gatherings, with our firm partners and individual ticket holders randomly broken down into smaller groups and attended by the judges of our illustrious bench. The Small Group Socials will start at 11:30 a.m., 30 minutes before the luncheon, and will allow us to visit in what we hope will be even a more personal manner with our bench, colleagues and friends.
We very much appreciate the support of our Luncheon Sponsors, especially this year. This list will be updated in real time as our Luncheon Sponsors for the 2020-2021 year confirm their support.
