Last Saturday (August 9) was the annual luncheon for Scribes, the American Society of Legal Writers. This was the first Scribes luncheon I had attended and it was great fun -- an entire roomful of law-and-language nerds! What could be better?
The guest of honor was Justice Antonin Scalia, who received the Scribes Lifetime Achievement Award. Justice Scalia gave a characteristically lively acceptance speech. Both Scalia and Bryan Garner stayed after the lunch to sign copies of the book they've just written together: Making Your Case: The Art of Persuading Judges.
Also in attendance was the indefatigable Lisa Solomon, whose website, The Billable Hour (www.thebillablehour.com), is a great source for all things legal (including, ahem, my book). And Scribes Executive Director, Joe Kimble, was there with copies of his lucid book, Lifting the Fog of Legalese.
