It’s truly hard to believe that @AppealsCourtGA has now been live-streaming and archiving our oral arguments for over a decade now. The courts belong to the people, and the people should be able to watch their judges in action and determine whether we honor them with our service.
On this day, six years ago, @AppealsCourtGA started live-streaming its oral arguments. This was a pet project of mine from the get-go, and I will always be thankful to my colleagues for strongly supporting it. The courts should be open and accessible to the people we serve.

Thank you Governor!
I want to thank Presiding Judge Rickman for his years of service on the Georgia Court of Appeals and to the people of our state. His attentive and careful deliberation have been instrumental in notable cases and have made our communities stronger. As he prepares to return to private practice, Marty, the girls, and I wish him, Maggie, and their family continued success and happiness.

Replying to @JudgeDillard
@JudgeDillard wrote this great article about judges needing to engage more with the public through social media. So here I am! (Long time lurker, to be sure.)
