Winter professional holiday party invitations are coming from left and right. Some of the parties are interesting, but some are less exciting than the tax-deductible one Rick Moranis planned in Ghostbusters.
One holiday party that will be both entertaining and good for social justice is the December 9 party in Baltimore by Civil Justice Network. Civil Justice Network is a public interest group that has found a way to involve small and solo law practitioners simultaneously to do good and well. The party will be in Baltimore City, which is a John Watersesque city of non-stop entertainment any time of year, including in such places as Hampden and Fells Point.
As I have learned from CJ, everyone is invited to the party: Non-lawyers and lawyers; those litigating on our side and against us; and everyone else. Here is the invitation. I look forward to seeing you there. Jon Katz.
