Season 4, Episode 24 (Show 181): Lear Jets, Books, and Virtue

June 12, 2024

The Court’s annual financial disclosures are out, with implications galore.  A potpourri of sorts this week.

CLE Credit Available for this episode from podcast.njsba.com.

The Court is taking its time on major opinion, which gives us a moment to turn to other matters.  Ethics remain in the news; the Court’s annual financial disclosures contain a number of surprises – maybe not so surprising.  There’s a lot to say there, and we have some proposals to improve the situation.  President Biden takes a position on a pardon, and we take a position on that.  Our listeners continue to provide great input on an ongoing conversation, and we take it seriously.

How to get Continuing Legal Education Credit for listening!

Virtually all lawyers and judges admitted to practice anywhere in the USA can obtain CLE (Continuing Legal Education) credit after listening to this episode by visiting podcast.njsba.com.  You do not have to be a New Jersey lawyer or resident or admitted to the NJ Bar; essentially every state has reciprocity arrangements with New Jersey.  When you visit the site you fill out a form and provide the code Andy read during the episode, pay a small fee, and within two weeks you will receive the certificate from New Jersey.  It couldn’t be easier.  Thanks to the New Jersey Bar Association for making this possible!  Note, too, that other podcast episodes from our “back catalog” now qualify for this credit as well.
