Thank you to everyone who joined KCBA at the Superior Court on Law Day, May 1, for the retaking of Washington’s Oath of Attorney. The turnout was spectacular, with standing room only in the courthouse’s largest courtroom!

The following are highlights from the KCBA Board of Trustees meeting held on April 16, 2025, convened by KCBA President Erin Overbey.

Working in downtown Seattle once meant that teriyaki for lunch was never more than a block or two away. In fact, one of the first editions of this column 18 years ago reviewed teriyaki shops in Seattle, and we could barely scratch the surface of the options available.

June is a month full of change and celebration. Not only does this month welcome summer with its longer days and brighter skies, but there is a lot to celebrate. Celebrating can also be a time to reflect on what’s important — like freedom on Juneteenth, love during Pride Month, or appreciation on Father’s Day. No matter the reason, celebrations remind us to pause, be grateful, and enjoy the moment.

Presiding Judge Ketu Shah draws attention to the escalating threats and vilification of judges — fueled by social media, public officials, and general misunderstanding of the judicial role — which pose a serious risk to civil society and the rule of law. Judge Shah underscores that disagreement with judicial decisions should be addressed through the appellate process, not personal attacks or calls for impeachment. He asks the legal community to actively support initiatives that promote understanding of the courts and protect the judiciary from politicization and violence. 

In a heartfelt and humorous tribute for Father’s Day, Michael Goldenkranz and his brother honor their recently passed 94-year-old father, celebrating his enduring legacy of civic engagement, generosity, and wit. A Navy veteran, lifelong volunteer, and longtime campaign treasurer for Senator Schumer, their dad led by example. With a personality reminiscent of Clint Eastwood characters, he urged others to step up and give back. Through vivid anecdotes and loving memories, the sons paint a portrait of a man who not only taught everyday skills and lasting lessons but also left behind a legacy and a call to action.
