On August 12th, I had the pleasure to present to the Orange County Bar Association’s New Lawyer Training Class of 2022. Our Clerk’s Office works to ensure that attorneys have all the necessary resources available to do business with our divisions. These future legal minds are important assets to our judicial system. I appreciate their thoughtful questions about our processes and how to effectively interact with our staff.
|
I wish to extend my sincerest congratulations to former City of Orlando Chief of Police Orlando Rolon and newly appointed Chief of Police Eric Smith on a successful change of command ceremony. It has been a pleasure working with Chief Rolon on different community initiatives to educate and engage the residents of Orlando, and I wish him the best in his next endeavors. I look forward to continuing the mission of advocacy and protecting the public trust with Chief Smith during his administration.
