With Retirement, White Cashing in

By Antonio D. French

Filed Monday, July 09, 2007 at 3:05 PM

You can't hate on a brother for trying to make some dough before his twilight years.

The Post-Dispatch confirms 53-year-old former Missouri Supreme Court Chief Justice Ronnie White is joining the law firm of Holloran and Schwartz — and as a partner, no less. From Jake Wagman's post:

One of the firm’s partners is Jim Holloran, a personal injury attorney who is probably better known for his Soulard tavern, McGurk’s, where White was to be feted Friday — his last day on the bench — to celebrate the new gig.

Holloran and Co. also offered another toast to the former head judge: the firm will now be known as Holloran, White & Schwartz.



Honoring Missouri's First: In 1995, Missouri Governor Mel Carnahan named the first African-American to the Supreme Court. Last week marked a milestone for St. Louis native, Justice Ronnie White, who resigned from the state's highest court. Recently friends from the judicial, civic and business communities came to pay tribute to retired Justice White at a farewell bash at McGurk's Irish Pub and Garden. Here (left to right) St. Louis juvenile commissioner Anne Clark, and Alderwoman Marlene Davis watched former Missouri Supreme Court Justice Ronnie White accept a proclamation from Charles Bryson, executive assistant to St. Louis Mayor Francis G. Slay, who was on vacation. (Photo and caption by Gentry Trotter)

(Photo and caption by Gentry Trotter) Is anyone reading this blog old enough to remember Gentry Trotter as the movie reviewer for Channel 4 about 30 years ago? He was hilarious and would often wear costumes in his movie review! I give his photo 4 4s honey!
