2/1's PJ to retire in 2014

Today's MetNews reports that 2/1's PJ Robert Mallano will retire next year (Feb. 28), and notes that Justices Chaney and Johnson "say they will not apply" for the PJ position. Justice Johnson is quoted as calling PJ Mallano "a brilliant jurist, kind and compassionate, a loyal friend and a great teacher."



Has no plans to engage in private judging
or do any other type of legal work:
"I want to learn to play Silent Night on the mandolin."
Sounds like great entertainment for the IALA Supreme Court dinner!
