MEYER, KBA PRESIDENT t looks like we are finally coming out of the COVID- 19 Pandemic. The Kentucky Supreme Court has lifted Irestrictions on jury trials, court room protocols and court- house operations. As I write this article, the Daviess Circuit Court just concluded its first jury trial in well over a year. Other courts are doing the same under the new normal, still taking precautions to avoid a spike in cases, as not all are vaccinated. Since the pandemic began, our resolve has been tested as a people. However, what I have seen is that people are resilient, especially the attorneys of the Commonwealth. I want to let each and every one of you know what an honor it is to serve you as the presi- dent of the Kentucky Bar Association (KBA). I am truly humbled at this opportunity and only hope to continue the great work that the KBA does and provides for its members. I want to commend Tom Kerrick and Steve Smith for their service as presidents of the KBA during these most unprecedented times. Steve had to make a number of difficult decisions in the last few months of his presidency as the pandemic first began. The choice to close the Bar Center was difficult but certainly necessary to protect the health and welfare of our outstanding staff. The most difficult decision he made was to cancel the 2020 convention scheduled in Covington after months of hard work and preparation and what would have been one of our best conventions ever. Steve continued to provide excellent guidance as immediate past president as the KBA maneuvered the pandemic world. Tom’s leadership as president through the pandemic has likewise been nothing but exem- plary. Tom was given a bag of lemons to begin his presidency and he did nothing but make lemonade. The creation of the Lawyers Advocating Wellness initiative focused on the much-needed topic of attorney wellbeing. If we do not take care of ourselves, how can we effectively take care of our clients? Unquestionably, we work in one of the most demanding of all professions. Without that framework in place, the KBA would have not been able to so quickly respond to the rash of attorney suicides that occurred in late December and 2 | JULY/AUGUST 2021 Change of venue Effective July 1, 2021, Lawyers Mutual has a new address.

Mr. Streisand was named U.S. Trusts and Estates Litigator of the Year in 2019 by Chambers HNW. Mr. Streisand is best known for his victories in courtroom battles over celebrity estates and, as Bill Plaschke of the Los Angeles Times wrote: "Streisand was the lawyer who … rescued both local NBA teams." Mr. Streisand’s trial victory for former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer against Donald Sterling resulted in Ballmer’s $2 billion purchase of the Los Angeles Clippers. But, as the Los Angeles Daily Journal explained, what captured the legal world completely by surprise was his "particularly adept legal gambit involving a rarely invoked clause of California’s probate code" that made it all happen. As the Los Angeles Times noted, two years later, “Adam Streisand carried the future of the Lakers into Room 629 at the Stanley Mosk Courthouse in downtown Los Angeles. The veteran attorney is no stranger to high profile cases…. In a very real way, he [was] being asked to save the Lakers." As ESPN reported, “Jeanie Buss and her lawyer Adam Streisand won a decisive legal victory to prevent a coup attempt.” The accolades for Mr.

Recalibrating Judicial Renominations in the Trump Administration Carl Tobias* Abstract Now that President Donald Trump has commenced the fifth month of his administration, federal courts experience 121 circuit and district court vacancies. These statistics indicate that Mr. Trump has a valuable opportunity to approve more judges than any new President. The protracted open judgeships detrimentally affect people and businesses engaged in federal court litigation, because they restrict the expeditious, inexpensive and equitable disposition of cases. Nevertheless, the White House has been treating crucial issues that mandate careful attention—specifically establishing a government, confirming a Supreme Court Justice, and keeping numerous campaign promises. How, accordingly, can President Trump fulfill these critical duties and his constitutional responsibility to nominate and, with Senate advice and consent, appoint judges? This Article initially canvasses judicial appointments in the administration of President Barack Obama.

  • How Can Britney Spears Break Free from Conservatorship?
    What would it take to #FreeBritney from her conservatorship? A legal expert explains Suzy Byrne ·Editor, Yahoo Entertainment February 15, 2021· Britney Spears in the Framing Britney Spears documentary. (Photo: FX) The cries to #FreeBritney from her conservatorship are louder than ever, but how hard is it to terminate one — and does she want to? In a memorable scene in Framing Britney Spears, the documentary which examines the singer's mistreatment in the media and the conservatorship controlling her life since her 2008 breakdown, attorney Vivian Lee Thoreen, who specializes in conservatorships and has since joined Britney's dad Jamie Spears’s legal team, is asked how many conservatees she has worked with who have successfully terminated a conservatorship. Her answer? Zero. It’s an eye-opening moment in the film considering Britney is, according to her court-appointed lawyer Samuel D. Ingham III, a “high- functioning conservatee," having earned $138 million between 2013 and 2017 for her Las Vegas residency. It made us wonder how exactly she goes about getting out of one, if she wanted to. “It is her legal burden to come to court and petition, or ask, the judge to have it removed,” California- based celebrity divorce lawyer Christopher C. Melcher of top family law firm Walzer Melcher tells Yahoo Entertainment. “She needs to show that the order is no longer necessary.” Basically, the 39-year-old would have to make the case that she’s able to care for herself. She would have to exhibit consistent behavior showing she can successfully meet her day- to-day needs (food, housing and health) as well as be able to provide for herself financially.
