Attorneys from GAYLAW, a local organization of GLBT attorneys, made a bit of history Tuesday morning, as they were sworn-in to the Bar of the United States Supreme Court. The May 29 ceremony marked the first time in the organization's 17-year history that attorneys from the group were sworn into the Supreme Court en masse.
''It was very exciting. The court was very welcoming,'' says GAYLAW Co-President Jeremy Brumbelow, one of the 19 GAYLAW attorneys participating in the ceremony. ''I don't know if I'll ever be in a position to argue before the Supreme Court, but now I have my membership.''
