The Supreme Court of Georgia has officially joined the appellate Twitterverse.
Perhaps the high court was inspired by the chatty Twitter feed of Stephen Dillard, chief justice of the Georgia Court of Appeals, who has 10,600 followers and is the Georgia courts’ unofficial but inarguable Tweeter-in-Chief, and whose beloved rescue dog, Irish, even has her own Twitter feed. Or maybe it was the advent of Hurricane Irma’s still tropical force storm winds that were sweeping toward Atlanta when the state high court sent its first tweet Sunday—that the Supreme Court would be closed Monday and Tuesday.
