One of my colleagues at the college, Prof. Huber, just came out with a new easy-to-read California real estate law textbook.
I was fortunate to work with Property Corner during my vacations, I also get a free copy and I wanted to share some things I read in this book that you may already know, but like Prof. Hayes — I like the way Prof. Huber explains real estate law. I share the following below from his book. I will post more later as I read more great stuff.

Email from Robert W. Brown,
Dear Board of Managers, Faculty and Staff,
I am writing to inform you that UWLA has just received its formal action letter from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges Senior College and University Commission (“WASC”) granting accreditation to our institution.
This is an honor earned by you, from your efforts in this communal passion project; also a gift from you that you have now bestowed upon future generations of alums- some of whom have yet to even be born.
Our institutional mission is, “Through the strengths and virtues of education in the classroom, online or in life, UWLA provides opportunities that empower students of great diversity to live successfully inspired lives.” As all of you know, this is not a slogan for marketing, but rather evidence of our credo dating back to 1966 when UWLA was founded to “democratize the practice of law” by our founders.
It is heartwarming and professionally gratifying that WASC witnessed the evidence of our mission, as noted in the following quotes from the WASC Site Visit Team’s commendations: Read more…
This meeting previously was the California Bar Assn annual meeting. The MCLE arm of the state bar however separated from the state bar effective the beginning of this year calling itself the California Lawyers Association. The CLA education programs this year can be found here. No bankruptcy programs but there are several programs that look interesting including several ethics programs.

This is a great concept. Judge Scott Clarkson, Chair of the Central District of California Case Management Committee, is going to preside over a “Listening Session” which will allow him to listen to “community members and canvass arising issues regarding current chapter 13 procedures after the implementation of the new chapter 13 form plan.” You can see the flyer here. Listening Session Clarkson I might have to attend myself.
