History: For 19 (!!!) years, an annually growing number of solo
attorneys and smaller law firms have sponsored a holiday party that
brings together people of all positions and backgrounds who work on
criminal matters. Our guests routinely include prosecutors, public
defenders, private attorneys, court staff, court reporters, police
officers, sheriffs, private investigators, social workers, probation
officers, law students and judges among many, many others who work in
the courts. This year features many sponsors, most of them private
attorneys or private law firms. Many of these sponsors and hosts are
ex-prosecutors and ex-public defenders. Like the members of the
judiciary themselves, the sponsors are all lawyers who have worn
different hats in the past and may wear different hats in the future.
Therefore, in our opinion, the sponsors and hosts do not represent a
particular group or viewpoint within the criminal justice system.
Purpose: The purpose of this event is to unite people whose
professional obligations sometimes conflict. The last thing we want
this party to be is exclusive. This is the CJC's 'people's party'. The
invitations are a necessary evil for reasons of safety and limited
resources. Our holiday party always brings together people in the
court system of different viewpoints and backgrounds to enjoy each
other's company for a night out. For some of our guests, it is a
highlight of their work life during the holidays. There is no better
time than the holidays to unite people of all stations who are
involved in the criminal justice system and to show them the
appreciation and respect they deserve. We hope to enjoy the evening
with all of you. YES, WE KNOW MANY OF YOU HAVE OTHER COMMITMENTS AND
WILL BE UNABLE TO ATTEND. HOWEVER, PLEASE KNOW YOU WILL BE WELCOME
