Congratulations to everyone who passed the Florida Bar.
Here’s how lawyers were notified back before there was the Internet. This is my Dad’s notification back in 1958.
A telegram!
The SDFLA Blog is dedicated to providing news and notes regarding federal practice in the Southern District of Florida. The New Times calls the blog "the definitive source on South Florida's federal court system." All tips on court happenings are welcome and will remain anonymous. Please email David Markus at dmarkus@markuslaw.com
Very cool.
ReplyDelete"Administration of oath and induction ceremony before Supreme Court [in 16 days from date of telegram] Rules contemplate your personal appearance." Can you imagine? What a different world.
David -- does this mean that your father had to travel to Tallahassee for the induction ceremony?
ReplyDeleteYes, I think so. But I never asked him about it…
ReplyDeleteAccording to unconfirmed rumors, 5:50 p.m., homing pigeons would simply crap on their heads.
ReplyDeleteHow much did the telegram cost?
ReplyDeleteReally cool that you still have that.
ReplyDeleteThat is super cool!
ReplyDeleteLove this.
ReplyDeleteDavid, so the Telegram was more or less like a fax or post card?
