The Recorder presents Justice Bedsworth's monthly column
Conclusions I've Drawn: "This month I won’t try to be funny. This month I will try something even tougher: I’ll try to be helpful." Below are his point headings, but be sure to read the actual article!
Conclusion 1: It’s never your assistant’s fault.
Conclusion 2: It’s probably no one else’s fault either.
Conclusion 3: What goes around comes around.
Conclusion 4: You want the things that come back to you to be good things.
Conclusion 5: “There is always a Diedrich case.” ("No matter how important the case you’re handling now, there is another one—at least equally important, probably more—coming out of the chute in the next go-round.")
Conclusion 6: What you’re doing is very difficult. Cut yourself some slack.
Conclusion 7: There is no greater engine on the planet for doing good than the American legal system.
Conclusion 8: We have been allowed to live a life of incredible privilege.
Conclusion 9: Only the good die young.
