Powell.) Good morning, everyone. Thank you, Judge Powell, for your kind introduction. This is the ninth time I have been privileged to stand in front of you and deliver this address. Believe me when I say that it is my privilege to be able to do so. [Talks about the memory of the late Chief Justice Thomas Moyer.] Looking back over the past 12 months, I must say, overall, it has been a good year. We have challenges that at times seem never ending but the good news is that we as the judiciary are meeting those challenges as difficult as they are. And doing so in a way that allows the influence of our work to continue to spread beyond the borders of Ohio. [Comments about the SC’s Office of Public Information] Our ideas and actions will inspire judges, attorneys and the constituents of court systems around our great nation. Before I give you some details about where we’ve been ‒ and where we need to go as we forge ahead ‒ I have a few acknowledgements. I want to offer my congratulations to the award recipients. [Judicial Conference awards recognition.] And now, I would like to welcome all of the new judges who are here today. In all, 63 currently sitting new judges are on the bench.

INTRODUCTION The Constitution of Ohio separates our state government into three branches, each with distinct areas of responsibility — the executive, the legislative, and the judicial. The primary function of the judicial branch is to fairly and impartially settle disputes according to the law. To do this, a number of courts are established in the state by the Constitution and by acts of the General Assembly. In addition to its place in the court structure as the court of last resort, the Supreme Court, in particular the chief justice, is responsible for the administration of the judicial branch in Ohio.

Trump (R) defeated former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (D) to become the 45th President of the United States of America, ending a long campaign season. The Republicans also kept majorities in the U.S. House and U.S. Senate. The election of a Republican President, together with a Republican-controlled Congress, will change Washington’s priorities. We expect that President-Elect Trump will begin identifying his policy agenda in the coming days and weeks, as well as name a Transition Committee and begin clarifying priorities well in advance of his Inauguration on January 20, 2017. At this time, we anticipate President-Elect Trump will work with the Republican controlled Congress to implement changes in some or all of the following areas: Taxes: Reducing all individual and corporate taxes and closing special interest tax loopholes. Infrastructure: Upgrading America’s infrastructure system by leveraging revenue, utilizing different financing opportunities (such as public-private partnerships), and incorporating new technologies and innovations into our infrastructure system. Energy: Making America energy-independent by removing regulatory barriers to energy production; eliminating the moratorium on coal leasing; and tapping into America’s shale, oil, and natural gas reserves. Trade: Working toward free trade and reducing the American trade deficit by withdrawing from and/or modifying trade agreements, including withdrawing from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and re- negotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
