Young Gunners' SCOTX Series | Episode 1: A Conversation with Chief Justice Jimmy Blacklock

Order in the court! 


Introducing a new series of TYLA’s Young Gunners podcast,
spotlighting all nine justices of the Supreme Court of Texas! In
these special episodes, TYLA President Hisham Masri, TYLA
Immediate Past President Laura Pratt, and TYLA President-Elect
Alyson Martinez speak with the SCOTX bench about their respective
path to the high court, judicial philosophy, and advice for young
attorneys navigating the legal profession. 


We kick off this series with an interview with Justice Jimmy
Blacklock, who was elevated to chief justice on January 6, 2025.
In this episode, Chief Justice Blacklock shares how the
principles of fatherhood and his deep-rooted faith have
influenced not only his path to the judiciary but also the way he
approaches leadership, decision-making, and the responsibilities
of public office. Tune in for a thoughtful exploration of
character, calling, and the intersection of personal conviction
with professional duty. 


And tune in soon for our second episode where we speak with
Senior Justice Debra Lehrmann, the longest-serving member on the
court!
