We all enjoyed visiting with each other.  Gone are the days PRI hosted a client party at downtown COSI.  They were a lot of fun, but we are all not the “party animals” of the 1980s.  There are photos that will not be posted. 

Attached are pictures of this year’s gathering. If you're not 15 minutes early, you're late. Blah-blah-blah. You won't believe what came next. I get to go where Monday? What did you say down there? Are you two finished with brief forms? This is for me? You have all the fun. Yep, we do. He said what? Is this menu in steno?

The person who cuts your hair must be certified. Why not the person responsible for the record? Most attorneys and the public are unaware that court reporters meet zero minimum standards in Ohio. 32 Other states require certification or licensure,” Sturm points out.
