Thanks to the Kappa Alpha Pi, Pre-Law & Government fraternity at Auburn University for their hospitality tonight. #statecourts

Who did it better? Us or Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry Truman, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Presidents Bush 41 & 43, Jimmy Stewart, Elvis Presley, Hank Williams, Clark Gable, Tallulah Bankhead, numerous sports legends, and every Alabama governor since 1917?

And so it begins.

As we begin this new week remember.

It would be wonderful if the NFL and its network partners would consider donating a modest amount of time—say a 30 second ad—during the Super Bowl for a nonprofit to promote the importance of civics education.

Thanks to the Auburn University & Kennesaw State University undergraduate mock trial teams for allowing me to participate as the trial judge during yesterday’s mock trial practice. Well done by all. #mocktrial #statecourts #civics

The law & sports strikes again.

A big thanks to Opelika Rotary for allowing me to speak yesterday about Alabama’s appellate courts, especially the Court of Criminal Appeals. And to the importance of #statecourts in our judicial system.

Enjoyed meeting with both the House & Senate judiciary committees this morning for breakfast. And then speaking to Leadership Chilton County. #statecourts #civics #civicleadership #Alabama
