THE OKLAHOMA BAR JOURNAL 58 | JANUARY 2025 From the Executive Director By Janet Johnson Make ‘Movie Night’ Your New Year’s Resolution WELL, HERE WE ARE AGAIN – another new year. We always start with the best of intentions: make resolutions, set new goals, become the best possible version of ourselves. I know; I try every year, and by now, you’ve seen a few articles from me on that front. But here is at least one worthy resolution I promise you will actually enjoy sticking to: Resolve to come to at least one of our regular OBA CLE Movie Nights at the Oklahoma Supreme Court in 2025. Our members who attend these events can always expect an informative and entertaining experience where you will gain valuable insight into the legal landscape through the cinematic lens. Past events have included movies from the hilarious – like My Cousin Vinny and Legally Blonde – to the serious – such as Blossoms in the Panelists discuss “The Judge,” an episode of the TV show Matlock, during a recent OBA Movie Night at the Oklahoma Judicial Center. Chief Justice M. John Kane IV served as moderator, donning a trench coat inspired by the episode. Panelists were (from left) David Prater, former Oklahoma County district attorney; Taylor Henderson, director, Oklahoma Council on Judicial Complaints; and Trevor Pemberton, former judge, Oklahoma Court of Civil Appeals.
