For any lawyers or law students in the #Waco area, tomorrow the Tenth Court of Appeals will hold a "Coffee with the Court." Stop by for coffee, pastries, and a chance to hobnob with the justices.
Thanks to @TexAppOrg for all the help planning!

Thursday and Friday are WFAA Weather Alert Days for the potential of accumulating snow. Flurries start as early as Wed night with snow accumulations beginning Thursday. It'll dry out from west to east Friday morning, but travel impacts will likely last through Friday #wfaaweather

I realize I'm becoming cliche, middle-aged dad (finding myself saying things like "you just gotta buckle down and do the work"). But get yourself one of these.
I've referred out quite a few cases lately. At first, it feels strange to tell a client, take your case elsewhere; but it's also liberating to say I do this thing well; let me connect you with someone who does the thing you need well.
