It’s a wrap: Annual Meeting brings renewed commitment to judicial vacancy crisis, affordability, wellness

The New Jersey State Bar Association’s first in-person Annual Meeting after a two-year hiatus brought scores of members and over a dozen legislators to Atlantic City to discuss the legal issues of the day. Kicking off the meeting at the Inside Trenton program, a majority of the continuing legal education sessions focused on the judicial vacancy crisis. The panel featured several lawmakers who discussed the importance of filling judicial vacancies, diversity on the bench, and increasing the mandatory retirement age.
