This week MSP, among other local firms, sponsored a reception and fundraiser to benefit the candidacy of our local Municipal Court Judge Bryan Johnson. Judge Johnson, who is now running for Floyd County Superior Court Judge, gave a heartfelt speech about the role of the court system to safeguard the rights of all citizens without regard to position, wealth or influence. Pictured left to right are Ben Stell, Jule Peek, Judge Bryan Johnson, Ret. Justice Norman Fletcher (of Brinson Askew), and Chris Jackson.
Rob Monroe has settled yet another workers compensation claim against a local resort for $95,000 lump sum after his client, a banquet server, injured his shoulder and neck carrying heavy trays of plates and glassware. Rob’s client eventually had to undergo surgery with a specialist at Emory to correct a suprascapular nerve entrapment in the shoulder. The employer fought the claim from the beginning and refused to pay Rob’s client any income benefits or pay any medical expenses, contending that the injury was not related to the client’s job. That’s when Rob got involved and ultimately forced the employer to compensate his client for lost wages and all related medical expenses.
MSP this day recognizes and honors those fallen officers who paid the ultimate price in the line of duty. The 23rd Annual Peace Officers Memorial Service was held at the Law Enforcement Memorial Plaza to pay homage to the twenty fallen officers of Rome/Floyd County. We express our deepest gratitude to them, as well as all of our law enforcement offers who fearlessly confront danger to keep us and our community safe.
