Columbian Lawyers elect new officers at president’s final meeting
Nearly 150 judges and lawyers packed the Rex Manor in Borough Park for the final monthly Continuing Legal Education (CLE) meeting of the Columbian Lawyers Association of Brooklyn under President Bart Russo on Tuesday night.
Russo spent time reflecting on his year as president of the organization and thanked many in attendance for their support.
“Sadly this is my last monthly meeting as president,” Russo said. “I thank everyone for their support throughout the year. Even during a snowstorm back in early march, we still had over 80 people here that night. It meant a lot.
