- The new issue of the Third Circuit Bar Association’s newsletter just posted online. It includes profiles of the Court’s 2 new judges, write-ups of notable recent cases, and my president’s note on threats against judges. Check it out here: www.thirdcircuitbar.org/publications
- If you’re a 3CBA member, you already received it a few days ago in your inbox. Well done. If you’re not a member, you can join or just find out more here: www.thirdcircuitbar.org/membership
- I’m aware that “bar association newsletter” sounds boring as all get out. But if you’re a lawyer who practices in the Third Circuit I promise you will find something useful. Perhaps even interesting. If you’re not, then, yes, probably dulls-ville.Feb 4, 2026 20:25
- I have the honor of serving as current president of 3CBA. In that role I follow in the footsteps of some far-more-impressive-than-I appellate lawyers, including a few on here.
- As president, I get to write a note for each issue. This time, I wrote about the terrible rise in violent threats against federal judges. My hope is that I can help encourage others to speak about it, too.
- Big thanks to everyone who wrote a piece for this issue, and to Ted Hages and Michael McCune for editing it. And if you’re interested in writing a piece for a future newsletter issue, just DM or email me.
