To say that the Erie County Bar Association’s Annual Meeting, on December 3, was well-attended would be a bit of an understatement! Attorneys and judges filled the ballroom at the Lakeside Country Club in Fairview for business matters, as well as more nostalgic moments of laughter and remembrance from the past year.
On Tuesday, November 3, voters will decide which judicial candidates should fill the open seats on the Erie County Court of Common Pleas, as well as the Pennsylvania Supreme, Superior, and Commonwealth Courts. The Erie County Bar Association wants the public to be aware of the facts and other informational resources before heading to the polls.
For the second year in a row, Wills for Heroes proved to be a major success for the Erie County Bar Association and all participants involved.
The Erie County Bar Association recently conducted a plebiscite, or confidential poll, of its active members to determine how the attorneys, many of whom practice before Cunningham and Garhart, would answer the question of whether they should be retained. Individual members were asked to anonymously vote either in favor of retention, in opposition to retention or to state that they had "No Opinion."
