Iowa Supreme Court

What a great honor I had yesterday to witness the investiture of Brent Appel as the newest justice of the Iowa Supreme Court. Brent has served Christian Life Assembly as our church's attorney for the past couple of years.

Governor Vilsack appointed him to the court in October with the installation yesterday. Governor Vilsack administered the oath of office in front of the entire Iowa Supreme Court, Lt. Governor Sally Pederson, Governor-elect Chet Culver, Lt. Governor-elect Patty Judge, district judges, court of appeals judges, federal court judges, and Brent's family and friends.

I had never been in the courtroom of the Iowa Supreme Court, but it is beautiful room in a gorgeous new building across from the Iowa Capitol building.
