NEWS FLASH: State Bar Court, Review Dept. Judge Richard A. Honn was re-appointed today to a second 6-year term by the Supreme Court of California. First, appointed to the State Bar Court Hearing Department in 2003, Judge Honn was elevated to the Review Department in 2014.
I have appeared before Judge Honn since he was assigned to the Hearing Department and have appeared before him in the Review Department. Judge Honn is an experienced, thoughtful, and careful jurist and a credit to the State Bar Court. Congratulations on your re-appointment, Judge Honn.

ETHICS UPDATE: In July 2020, the State Bar Board of Trustees acted to amend Rule 1.1 (Duty to Perform Legal Services with Competence) to add a comment that brings the concept of "Technology Competence" to California for the first time!
What is Technology Competence? Are attorneys required to become experts in using the latest legal technologies? How does the adoption of Technology Competence affect an attorney's current duties of communication and supervision?
Join me as I present a webinar on this important concept of "Technology Competence" (sponsored by the Whittier Bar Association) next Thursday at 6:00 pm that will answer all these questions and more! What you don't know about Technology Competence can hurt you!
