Message from the President

Greetings!

The Sacramento Chapter of the Federal Bar Association is an active group of lawyers dedicated to improving the knowledge and skills of federal practitioners, providing a forum for communication between the court and practitioners, as well as finding ways to better serve our community. This year we are planning many new seminars and programs, as well a bringing back favorites such as our annual summer review of key Supreme Court decisions.

In February we will again support “Protect & Defend” - The Constitutional Project, whose mission is to rally members of the bar to promote the values of American Government and the Constitution in public schools. The program gives FBA members a unique opportunity to join with members of the Bar to meet with educators and students in the community to promote important civic values. The program ends on May 1 with a Law Day Dinner and awards ceremony.

March 4 will be our first mixer- open to all members free of charge.
In October we will be hosting a reception for a 9th Circuit Panel of Judges when they come to Sacramento to hear cases. The reception will allow our members an opportunity to talk about appellate practice and procedures in an informal setting.

And finally, we will continue to provide you with our excellent periodic newsletter, which contains interesting news and wonderful articles about the legal history of the Eastern District of California.
We look forward to serving you, and invite suggestions as to topics to be covered, possible speakers or other ideas to help us serve you better.

Antonia G. Darling
President, FBA Sacramento Chapter
