TBA TODAY TOP NEWS
ABA facing major changes; Robinson on path for president
A resolution scheduled to come before the American Bar Association House of Delegates meeting tomorrow would cut dues to the national organization for solo practitioners by about 50 percent. ABA President Carolyn Lamm cited dues as a reason why 70 percent of lawyers are not ABA members. A series of staff and organizational changes have taken place on her watch, she said, including the resignation last fall of the executive director, and the termination of the CFO and chief budget staff person.
Also as part of the meeting this week, former ABA treasurer and past president of the Kentucky Bar Association, William T. (Bill) Robinson III, was selected as president-elect nominee. It is expected that in August 2010, Robinson will become the president-elect for one year leading to his one-year term as president, which will begin in August 2011.
