Through recorded interviews with FCBA members, we are capturing personal reflections, professional milestones, and meaningful moments that have shaped the Association over the past 100 years.

We are honored to share our Centennial Oral History Interview with Judge Melissa Moore Murphy!

Go Back to School with the Transy Book Heist On-Demand CLE!

The Transy Book Heist: Inside Lexington's Most Infamous Rare Book Theft, is an in-depth look at one of the most unusual and widely publicized crimes in Lexington history. In 2004, priceless rare books were stolen from the special collections library at Transylvania University, bringing national attention to the Lexington community and its historic university.

Join defense attorneys Fred Peters, Pat Nash, Adele Burt Brown, and Mike Mazzoli; prosecutor David Marye, for a behind-the-scenes look at the investigation, prosecution, defense strategy, and courtroom dynamics surrounding this extraordinary case. Presented from both the defense and prosecution perspectives, the session will provide unique insight into the legal and personal challenges faced by those involved. The panel will also discuss the case's lasting cultural impact, including its portrayal in the movie American Animals, and how the events continue to resonate in Kentucky legal history and popular culture.

The Transy Book Heist CLE has been accredited by the KBA CLE Commission for 1.5 hours of CLE until June 30, 2027.

Join us for the WLA Judicial Candidate Forum in the Fayette Circuit Courthouse Multipurpose Room. This forum will offer members an opportunity to hear directly from the judicial candidates before the November election.
