One of the great things about retirement is my new opportunity to start making the lunches with my JCPD pals. From bottom right, counter-clockwise: Greg Gitschier, Dave Beach, Bill Carcara, Steve Cheatham, Dave Mottley, Frank Pribble, Dave Wood, Chris Winders, Mike Simpson, Pat Conkling and me.

Everyone be safe tonight and enjoy New Year’s Eve. Remember, have a designated driver or utilize Uber or other ride services if you’re drinking. Better yet, celebrate at home. 🎉🎄

Collegiality and comity are so important in the legal profession. Got to spend some time today helping my great colleagues in Oldham County. Also got to visit some friends and enjoy some great barbecue. Not a bad day. 👨🏼‍⚖️

My final Saturday Arraignment docket today! Had a great crew, a light docket and enjoyed some memories. Molly Smith (Unicorn Security 😂)and I have been together since my start in 2008!

Spread the word folks.

Well it seems that the Jefferson District Court’s decision to have prisoners held on out of county warrants brought to Arraignment Court has unilaterally been halted. The Chief Judge decided it was a rule change that must go through the formal rule change process. It did not go through any process when the practice was arbitrarily and unilaterally stopped a year ago.

Respectfully, I DISSENT.

Prayers please for our Commonwealth, especially those in Western Kentucky. We lost a good man and judge, Judge Brian Crick of Muhlenburg County, in the horrific storms early this morning. One among many.

Addendum to yesterday’s post:

Several lawyers had previously approached me about my intentions regarding re-election. I promised I would let each of them know if I decided not to run. Yesterday I made those calls, keeping my word.

To be clear - I can not, do not, and will not endorse or recommend any candidate for judicial office. Any inference otherwise is simply misleading. This isn’t my seat - it’s yours.

Like Barney Fife, I have to nip it in the bud.
