The Greek philosopher Heraclitus is credited with the philosophical observation that everything is in flux and constantly changing, memorialized in his quotation: “No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it is not the same river and he is not the same man.”

From Greek philosopher Heraclitus to Mahatma Gandhi to David Bowie to Taylor Swift, the great thinkers and/or pop stars of their times appear to agree the only constant in life is change; and that change needs to be embraced head on. But really how much change is there at the Marin County Bar Association? We had a change in the Presidency this year, but we transition to a new President every year. Likewise, the make-up of the Board of Directors changes annually by roughly one third.

Governor Newsom recently appointed Judge Kevin Murphy to fill the vacancy left by retiring Judge Roy Chernus. Judge Murphy had already been presiding over Department F as a visiting judge for several weeks, taking over Judge Paul Haakenson’s calendar while he was on leave. At the beginning of this year, he moved to Department K, and took over the felony case load from Judge Beth Jordan, who moved to family law. Through these assignments, he has already presided over half a dozen jury trials, and, aside from the fact that he instructs after closing arguments, by all appearances, the transition has been seamless.

Former Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye was the 28th chief justice of the State of California. As the first Filipina and the second woman to serve on the state’s highest court, Chief Justice Cantil-Sakauye has paved the way for numerous women aspiring to pursue careers in law and the judiciary. Her 32-years of service on all levels of the state’s courts, including 12-years as chief justice, are distinguished by remarkable progress and policy initiatives that continue to shape the landscape of our judicial system. Her leadership and vision during the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic were especially critical, resulting in continuing access to our courts through the use of technology.
