Episode 12: Dan, Beth, and Joe continue their journey into what lawyers can and can’t do by exploring the Canons of Judicial Ethics. No, it's not about firing cannons. Yes, it may be slightly drier than diving into the water with orcas or down to the Titanic (or, at least, attempting to...), but a listener requested this topic and, if there's one thing we do best, it's listen to our listeners (or we were contractually bound to cover the topic*). Anyway, Dan explains what judges can and cannot do in their roles on the judiciary. Spoiler alert! It’s nothing and everything! "How can that be?" one might ask? Well, lucky for you, we explain it all while throwing in our thoughts on how much the canons make sense (and how judges can adhere to them) based on our time in practice. We also discuss a local Judge who broke the cardinal rule of remote hearings (yes, it's always recording), whether Dan has a receding hairline (he doesn't), and how old Beth actually looks (hint: not old). Another rousing hour of civil law from the NBH team for your listening pleasure.
*Not actually contractually bound.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
