Got Ethics?
2009 Ethics Follies Video Presentation, August 25
Show #1: 9-12 noon
Show #2: 2-5 p.m.
The 2009 Ethics Follies "Misbehavin' at the Menger" (A Ghostly Musical of Ethic Proportions) will be shown on August 25 at the SABA offices on the 5th floor of the Bexar County Courthouse. The video will begin promptly at 9 a.m. and again at 2 p.m.
Our old friends at Decent Food & Drug are meeting at the Menger Hotel for their annual ethics and compliance conference. They are one year out from the tragic day that their President, B. Trey Hastily, was arrested for fraud. During the conference, Nancy Naivete' (Sherry Gibbs Houston) is caught in a storm, and is taken back to 1929 Dorothy style, where she learns about corporate greed, fraud, the ethics rules, and how one good deed can change some one for good.
Registration is $60 to SABA and ACC members and $75 to nonmembers. Attendees will receive 3.0 hours of ethics CLE credit, fulfilling the annual Texas State Bar requirement. Walk-ins are welcome!

Please keep in mind that Texas CLE regulations state that only 5.0 hours of self study credit is allowed per reporting year. Attorneys are responsible for reporting their own self study credit.
