You are hereby cordially invited to join or renew your membership in the Criminal Courts
Bar Association.

The first meeting of the Criminal Courts Bar Association took place in 1954 at the old
Levy’s Restaurant located on Spring Street in downtown Los Angeles. Among the founders and active practitioners who helped form our organization were Al Matthews, Abbot Bernay, Max Solomon, John Marshall, Forrest Appell, Dick Erwin, Harold Ackerman, Joe Rosen, Maury Lavine, and Al Garber. Jerry Giesler actively participated in the organization in its initial stages and he was the only president to serve two terms.

The Articles of Incorporation state that “the specific and primary purpose of this
corporation is to form a professional association of attorneys actively engaged in the practice of law who are dedicated to upholding and improving the standards for the administration of justice.”

Quoting our revered past president, James G. Cooney, “since the beginning that statement of purpose has been and is the reason for our existence. OUR ASSOCIATION WILL GROW IN SIZE, STRENGTH, AND RESPECT ONLY TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY THE FORCE, VIGOR, AND DILIGENCE GENERATED BY THE MEMBERSHIP.”
