That's not a typo; we're talking about the Circuit next door, not the 9th. The Southern California appellate community has been enriched by the addition of former 10th Circuit Chief Judge Deanell Tacha since she became Dean of Pepperdine Law School. Last April she was the keynote speaker at LACBA's Appellate Section luncheon. Next month (Feb. 5) she will be addressing the Century City Bar Association at its Distinguished Speakers Luncheon at Lawry's Prime Rib in Beverly Hills. Her presentation has the intriguing title "Who Needs Lawyers Anyway?"
