Judge Black Takes Senior Status

The Honorable Susan H. Black — for whom I had the pleasure and honor of serving as a law clerk in 1998-99 — this week announced that she has elected to take senior status effective February 25th. Judge Black will stick around and continue to help with a full case load, so the Eleventh Circuit will continue to be lucky enough to be graced with her presence and work ethic for a long time. It will be quite interesting to see who is on tap to fill her seat!
