For those of you who have followed my ventures into the blogosphere, Reversible Error (geared toward my personal experience transitioning from mega-firm lawyer to sole practitioner) and Court of Appeals Update (providing summaries of significant civil decisions from the Third Court of Appeals in Austin), my idea to re-tool and improve those projects sort of took on a life of its own, resulting in the creation of the Texas Appellate Law Blog. Since no one else seems to be publishing a general-interest blog about Texas civil appellate practice, I figured, why not me?
I am committed to developing the Texas Appellate Law Blog and making it a resource for appellate practioners, both the purposeful (like me) and the accidental (who should consider calling someone like me). But I doubt whether I can do that and maintain two other blogs (one of which requires a considerable time investment in reading and summarizing cases). Oh, and I also need to make a living practicing my craft.
So, I’m going to focus on the Texas Appellate Law Blog and experiment with blending all of my ideas together in that format. My more personal posts will involve practice management issues, and my case-related posts—while still focused largely on the Third Court—will not go into quite as much detail as before.
As of today, this blog will no longer be updated. I encourage you to visit and subscribe to the Texas Appellate Law Blog for tips, resources, and news relevant to Texas civil appellate practice. Thanks for reading.
