Happy New Year (and Second Birthday Texas Appellate Law Blog)!
.jpg)
Two years ago today, I launched this blog—the first of its kind in Texas— to engage folks who are interested in or involved with civil appellate issues. As was the case last New Year's Day, publishing content and interacting with readers remains very fulfilling, and the blog continues to open doors for my practice. I hope it remains a useful tool for its audience.
I wish everyone reading this post a blessed, safe, and productive 2009. As I reflect on the past year and consider my goals for the next, here are some of my favorite posts from 2008:
