The 2007 MAMAS reception was a tremendous success. We celebrated the anniversary of our founding with a reception and panel discussion on the role of diversity in the bar, with over a hundred people in attendance, including prominent members of the bench, bar, and press. Our reception was featured in a story in Washington Law & Politics.
We were honored to have an outstanding group of panelists from the federal and state judiciary:
- Judge Mary Kay Becker, Washington Court of Appeals, Division I;
- Magistrate Judge James P. Donohue, United States District Court for the Western District of Washington
- Justice Mary E. Fairhurst, Washington State Supreme Court
- Senior Circuit Judge Betty B. Fletcher, United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
- Judge Richardo S. Martinez, United States District Court for the Western District of Washington
- Judge Marsha J. Pechman, United States District Court for the Western District of Washington
- Acting Chief Judge Ann Schindler, Washington Court of Appeals, Division I
Our panelists were engaging, entertaining, and insightful, speaking on issues ranging from dealing with potential bias on juries to practical advice for attorneys considering having children.
