   THE AMERICAN INNS OF COURT SELECTS NEW TRUSTEES

   The American Inns of Court Foundation, America's oldest, largest
and fastest growing mentoring organization, will welcome several
distinguished legal professionals to its Board of Trustees on July 1,
2008.

   Named as Appointed trustee is Dean Kenneth Starr, the Duane and
Kelly Roberts Dean and Professor of Law at Pepperdine University
School of Law. In the 1970's, he clerked for Chief Justice Warren E.
Burger, a founder of the American Inns of Court movement. In addition
to working in the private sector, he has served as a judge on the U.S.
Court of Appeals, D.C. Circuit, Solicitor General of the United
States, and Independent Counsel on the Whitewater matter.

   Other new trustees who will begin four-year terms include two
At-Large trustees:

   Honorable Sandra Mazer Moss is president of the Temple American
Inn of Court and a member of the First Judicial District of
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and Frank Petro is past president of the
Justice James H. Coleman, Jr. Workers Compensation American Inn of
Court and is a senior partner at Petro Cohen Petro Matarazzo
Warrington.

   Representing the Fourth Judicial Circuit is Edward W. Mullins, Jr.
of the John Belton O'Neall Inn of Court in Columbia, South Carolina.
He is a senior partner at Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough LLP.

   The Sixth Circuit trustee is Patrick M. McLaughlin, president of
the Judge John M. Manos Inn of Court in Cleveland, Ohio and a founding
partner of McLaughlin & McCaffrey, LLP.

   The Tenth Circuit trustee is Alan L. Sullivan of the David K.
Watkiss - Sutherland II American Inn of Court in Salt Lake City, Utah.
He is a partner and executive committee member with Snell & Wilmer
LLP.

   The Barrister trustee is Lisa Sharp of the John Marshall Inn of
Court; an associate with McGuire Woods in Richmond, Virginia.

   Firmly rooted in the noble 800-year-old tradition of the Inns of
Court in England, the American Inns exist to supplement the academic
and technical training of American lawyers through the time-honored
English tradition and practice of "pupillage"--the sharing of wisdom,
insight and experience of seasoned judges and lawyers with newer
practitioners. Using this approach, the American Inns of Court seeks
to foster excellence in professionalism, ethics, civility and legal
skills.

   The American Inns of Court includes more than 25,000 federal,
state and local judges, lawyers, law professors and law students in
some 350 chapters across the United States. Additionally, there are
over 80,000 alumni members. Foundation offices are located in
Alexandria, Virginia. More information is available at
