President’s Message: February 1, 2021

White rabbit, white rabbit, white rabbit! Does anyone else say that on the first day of each month for good luck … or just me? These days, I’m all for anything that will bring good luck my way. And I think it’s working because this February brings with it so many terrific opportunities, despite being a short month. 

You have the opportunity to join us on February 8 for a free Exchange on Equity Roundtable featuring the wonderful team of Tristan Higgins and Rebecca Zipp who will introduce an evidence-based tool to help your organization assess its approach to racial equity. 

You have the opportunity to try a case again starting February 8! Beginning with the Central Courthouse, but then expanding to other locations, the San Diego Superior Court is planning to resume in-person jury trials and will do so safely, with COVID-19 safety precautions followed throughout all courthouses.
