#BencherElection2019 voting numbers as of 9 a.m. today (April 26): 9,858 lawyers and 1,105 paralegals have voted. Beyond the chat with colleagues in your network about the rainy weather today, why not suggest they cast their #LSObencher votes?
If you've already voted in #BencherElection2019, thank you. If not, and you're under 40, you're the ones who'll be affected the longest by policies made in the next four years. Please vote this weekend.
There were a lot of questions in Convocation last time, from benchers like @VespryLaw and @GroiaJoseph about the fiduciary duty and duty of good faith in the Bencher code of conduct. Here's an update: LSO is subject to subsection 127.1 (1) of the Corporations Act 8/n
Bencher Jerry Udell says that if #LSOConvocation wants more solicitors (an issue raised by Wright), then solicitors need to go vote in #BencherElection2019 .
You know you can vote 24/7, any time it’s convenient until April 30, 2019 at 5 p.m. sharp, right? Just saying, in case you haven’t voted yet for your Bencher picks.
As voting nears, we urge all Bencher candidates and voters to stand with us on one key principle: The LSO should ensure sustainable funding for PBO. Together, we can take meaningful, concrete, and cost-effective action on access to justice. Our moment is now. #BencherElection2019
