Congrats to Jordi Martinez-Cid on his CABA Presidency!

 By John R. Byrne

Congrats to blog contributor Jordi Martinez-Cid who is now president of the Cuban American Bar Association. The gala--considered one of the best annual "lawyer" parties in Miami--was this past Saturday at Jungle Island. Judge Becerra introduced the event, and Judge Moreno, whom Jordi clerked for, swore in the new board.

The event also made news based on comments made at the gala by Mike Hammer, currently the top US diplomat in Cuba. Hammer predicted that Cuba's dictatorship will end this year. Herald covers it here.
