BRIEFS
2014 June Bar Admission Ceremony
The Society held its annual Call to the Bar on June 6 at Pier 21, with the Hon. Justice Glen G. McDougall of Nova Scotia Supreme Court presiding.
Sixty-two new lawyers joined the legal profession, and the majority stayed in Nova Scotia to establish their legal practices. Eighteen more were
admitted at a smaller ceremony on October 16 at the Halifax Law Courts.
From the Bench … to the barbecue

the grilling at a lunchtime staff
BBQ at The Law Courts in Halifax.
