CELA Salutes Outgoing Bulletin Editor Joan Herrington

Joan Herrington, Esq.

Please join the CELA Board in thanking Joan Herrington for her service to CELA as our Bulletin Editor. Since early 2015, Joan has provided thoughtful and well-researched reports of verdicts and settlements, and summaries of every significant newly published case on California employment law. Her editorial stewardship has ensured that each monthly edition arrived full of information relied on by CELA members and almost 200 judges and justices around the state. As a leader within CELA, Joan successfully recruited other talented contributors to write valuable practice guides that have appeared in almost every edition.

When CELA advertised to hire a new Bulletin editor after the untimely passing of Chris Bello in 2015, we were grateful that Joan stepped forward to take the helm. In addition to her writing and editorial duties, Joan was instrumental during her tenure as Editor in helping to redesign the Bulletin, bringing it from its paper past to the electronic version we have today. For all of this, we express our gratitude and respect.

Please take a moment to thank Joan for her contribution to CELA and for taking on the monumental task of keeping us all oriented and up-to-date as we traverse the ever-shifting landscape of employment law.

Beginning with the next edition, Craig Byrnes is adding the position of Editor to his portfolio of volunteer activities as a member of CELA’s Board. As Joan and Chris before him have done, we look forward to seeing the mark Craig will make as Editor.
