Home-Court Advantage: How the SEC’s Intention to Bring More Administrative Proceedings Could Affect You

(October 25) – Senior U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission officials said recently that the agency will increase its use of administrative law proceedings in lieu of federal district court actions. The SEC’s success rate before ALJs is statistically higher than in federal enforcement actions. Skeptics would point out that this is hardly surprising, given that the ALJs are employed by the SEC.

  • Bar None Celebrates 40 Years of Scholarship Fundraising and Building Community in Dallas - Martha Hardwick Hofmeister was a freshly minted lawyer and new to Dallas when she joined the Dallas Bar Association because, she recalled, “I thought that’s what you were supposed to do when you’re a lawyer.”

    She joined the association’s entertainment committee and had to miss a meeting. She got a letter shortly thereafter appointing her director of a new project, a show without a lot of structure, that would raise funds for the newly established Sarah T. Hughes Diversity Scholarship.

    Four decades later, Hofmeister is still the director of that production. Bar None, a lawyer-written and lawyer-performed musical comedy, has raised more than $2.5 million for full-ride law school scholarships. Over the years, the cast and crew have cultivated a Bar None family that has celebrated cast members who marry and have children and have rallied together in the hard times, including the loss of teammates.
