Congratulations to former @JusticeWillett clerk, @AppellateBeef—the 1st former #SCOTX clerk to go on to clerk for #SCOTUS—who will serve as the next Solicitor General of Louisiana!

One of only two Texan-born #SCOTUS Justices, what a legacy of outstanding public service Sandra Day O’Connor leaves behind after a life particularly well lived.
Here she is at @SCOTXHistSocy’s 2013 Hemphill Dinner with fmr #SCOTX CJ Jefferson & every living woman SCOTX Justice.
Our illustrious Madame Chair @texapp presides over the Section’s first, full-length Council meeting of the Bar year!
Many thanks to @LockeLord for hosting the Section this year!
