From the PresidentAaron BreitenbachThe Greatest Month of the YearOctober is inarguably the best month of the year.Having written previously about avoiding division andthe need for open dialogue, I’m laying down some truthhere: October is the best. Period. If you like nature andwellness, you’ve got beautiful leaves, and one of the fewmonths you can usually go for a walk every day withoutfrying or freezing. We’re talking shorts and “sweaterweather,” folks. If you’re into sports, it’s the only monthall five of the biggest professional sports leagues are inaction. It’s the only month with a pre-party,“Octoberfest,” and it ends with one of Joni’s favoriteholidays, Halloween. Most importantly, it contains acouple of noteworthy dates: my birthday on October16th and my grandmother’s birthday on October 19th. I mention both of our birthdays because we oftencelebrated them together as a family. My grandma, PatPeschka, had a tremendous influence on my life andwould have been turning 99 this year had she notpassed in 2020. She taught me a lot about humor,humility, strength, and love. There are few days I don’tthink of her, and I know she would be proud of mebeing the President of the Bar (though she’d bedisappointed to learn there isn’t any scotch that comeswith that title). She was a person of strong faith butnever dogmatic. Love and forgiveness were inabundance, except perhaps for “nincompoop”politicians or anyone who got too big for their britches.Her smile and laugh were special but her hugs were thebest…never holding back and always holding on just aslong as you needed. I thought about dedicating this entire column to storiesof her, but I only get so many opportunities and there isanother topic that simply must be addressed: “Whatshould people get me for my birthday?”As I’ve gotten older and been spoiled by my lovely bride,there really is less and less that I want. More hair? Lessbelly? A dog that doesn’t insist on sitting on my lap whileI’m trying to type a President’s column? Yes, they allwould be nice but fleeting.I also have to recognize that, with very rare exception, Ihaven’t bought birthday presents for any of you, and Ireally don’t intend to. Sorry. Probably not the best wayto solicit gifts, but grandma taught me to be honest. Ahhhh, that’s the ticket. Instead of a gift for me, howabout a gift for my grandma? Or maybe a gift forwhoever helped shape and support you most inbecoming the lawyer and person you are today? I havejust the thing, and you are just the right person to giveit.We need lawyers. And by “we,” I am referring to thecriminal bar. To avoid any conflict of interest, I willforego promoting the open positions in my own officeand instead note the crippling shortage of criminaldefense attorneys, particularly in the 18th JudicialDistrict Court. A combination of several factors (COVIDbacklogs, “the Great Retirement,” a decade-plus ofsmaller law school graduating classes, low pay, difficultwork, etc.) have combined to create an unprecedentedshortage in available lawyers for those in need ofappointed counsel. We have defendants who have towait weeks to see their attorney, and the relatively smallnumber of appointed attorneys available makesscheduling trials and hearings in a timely, efficientmanner more difficult than I have ever known or heardit to be. To be clear, I’m not asking anyone to change careers(though it’s entirely welcome). Rather, I am asking you toconsider reaching out to Chief Judge Goering to ask BAR-0-METER - OCT 2022 Page 2

how you or your firm could help. Many of you got yourstart in the criminal bar. Some of the rules may havechanged, but the Constitution’s bumpers remain thesame. Dust off those old skills and show thewhippersnappers in the firm what you got.For those without prior criminal experience, the reality isthat upward of 85% of cases are resolved by plea. Manydefendants simply need someone to listen, review theircase with them, and help them negotiate the bestresolution. I recognize few would be qualified torepresent alleged murderers or sex offenders andwouldn’t want to encourage anyone to handle a casebeyond their capacity, but, if the majority of WBAmembers took on a single misdemeanor or low-levelfelony case, the burden on our defense bar and theirclients would ease dramatically.And, best of all, this gift can literally pay you back. Irecognize Sedgwick County or the Board of IndigentDefense Services can’t afford the going hourly rate formost of you, but your time can be worth more thanmoney. It can offer an ear and bring a voice to adefendant in need. [Slight tangent: If you’re inspired to give even more selflessly of your time, but struggle withthe idea of criminal defense for personal reasons,something tells me Christy Campbell and her Pro BonoCommittee would love to hear from you.]So, in summary, a Deputy District Attorney is asking formore defense attorneys as a birthday tribute to hisbeloved grandmother. Given the upside down times inwhich we live, that sounds about right. Let’s make this amonth and what would have been Grandma Pat’s 99thyear a one to celebrate.BAR-0-METER - OCT 2022 Page 3

Keith E. Martin was born July 16, 1950, in Fort Dodge, Iowa, and grew up in Grand Island, Nebraska. He graduatedfrom St. Louis University after attending Kearney State College and the University of Nebraska Lincoln. Keith andSusan met at Kearney State College at a “back-to-school” dance. It was not “love at first sight,” but their paths keptcrossing and they were engaged just four months later on New Year’s Eve. They married on June 4, 1971, andrecently celebrated their 51st wedding anniversary. Keith and Susan were blessed with two sons, Andrew and Sam,who are strong and amazing young men who brought two beautiful and loving daughters-in-law into the family.Andrew and his wife, Colette, blessed them with four precious granddaughters. Sam and his wife, Lindsay, areexpecting their first baby, another granddaughter, in November. Keith will watch over them all from Heaven.Keith attended law school as a young married man and graduated in 1976 from the University of Nebraska. His firstjob out of law school was with the Sedgwick County District Attorney’s Office where he practiced for two yearsbefore moving to the law firm of Smith, Shay, Farmer & Wetta and became the last surviving member of the firm 44years later. Keith’s practice was highly varied in City Courts, District Courts, and Federal Courts. He once said, “Youought to file an appeal every few years just to keep sharp.” His focus was generally domestic law, mixing in a bit oftraffic, probate, criminal, and bankruptcy law. He also represented a few corporations for decades and served ascounsel for the Sedgwick County Electric Cooperative for many years. Paid attention to his workload, because to doall that, he usually worked long into the evening, even seven days a week on occasion. Keith was dedicated to hisclients. For 38 years he kept his same legal assistant, Cheryl Crawford, who stayed with him until the end. Keith was a quiet and reserved attorney of the highest ethical standards - a gentleman to practice with or against.You would never know about his wild side unless you got to know him well. In 1999, Keith and his son, Andy,traveled to Spain and France with Dan Wetta and his son, Patrick, and another friend. They ran with the bulls inPamplona and had a wonderful adventure! Keith studied Spanish for over a decade. He participated in WSU adult education courses, then a group lesson, andlater added a Saturday course as well. He brought great joy in class with his quick wit. He could communicate inwriting with the cleaning staff in the Garvey building if any task was needed. Keith once caught a critical error in acourtroom translator’s witness translation. He laughed at himself, because he denied fluency even after a decadeof lessons, but that didn’t stop him from traveling to Spanish-speaking countries. Keith and Susan traveledthroughout the interior of Mexico, never staying at a resort and always creating their own itinerary. Keith wouldoften ask for a haircut from a local barber or beautician to speak Spanish with them.Keith’s favorite Spanish teacher liked to travel. In the company of his teacher and her Spanish class, Keith had hispocket picked in Mexico City, climbed pyramids, swam under waterfalls, explored caves, and traveled through Peruto view Machu Pichu. His health prevented further travel, but he continued to participate in class.Keith volunteered with Medical Missions International in Mexico and the Dominican Republic. He would humbly saythat his job was to carry surgery instruments to the sanitizer and that he rarely needed to speak Spanish.In Memory of Keith E. MartinBy Diane Sherwood, Ted Knopp,and Susan Martin (Keith's Wife)Keith’s church was another major focus of his life. He was a lifelongLutheran and belonged to a Lutheran fraternity in college. He was an activeand faithful member of the Reformation Lutheran Church in Wichita. Dr.George Tiller was murdered in the church while ushering with Keith in 2009.Keith ran after the assailant and blocked his car. The assailant told him toget out of the way or he’d shoot him too. Keith backed away, but as theassailant pulled out of the parking place, Keith saw that his window wasopen and threw his coffee on him! Keith was called to testify about thatexperience at trial. When asked if he had suffered PTSD, he calmly replied“Yeah, I suppose so. I had several dreams about it for quite a while.”BAR-0-METER - OCT 2022 Page 9

Honorable Mitchell L. HerrenBy January BaileyInvestiture CeremonyIn July 2020, Mitchell L. Herren was sworn in to become Judge Mitchell L. Herren, a federal bankruptcy judge for theDistrict of Kansas. He replaced Judge Robert Nugent, who retired the month before. Of course, in the summer of2020, we did not have gatherings of any sort be it a social or formal event. So two years later, on August 26, wewere finally able to celebrate with Judge Herren’s Investiture Ceremony.The Investiture took place in the Federal Courthouse, in Courtroom 238 (the large ceremonial courtroom). Theroom was packed with attendees, including many judges and former judges from the District of Kansas, SedgwickCounty District Court, Kansas Court of Appeals, and Judge Nancy Moritz from the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals.Following the opening of the ceremony and remarks by Chief Judge Dale Somers of the Bankruptcy Court, theinvocation was done by Joel Atwell, a pastor from Spring Hill and childhood friend of Judge Herren. Judge Herren’ssister, Sandra J. Colhour, entertained the audience with tales of stuffed animals hanging from ceiling fans and theamazing feats of her heroic older brother. Judge John Broomes presented Judge Herren, telling the audience moreabout the character of our newest bankruptcy judge. Judges Broomes and Herren previously worked at Hinkle LawFirm, LLC, together, and they formed a tight friendship in their time at the firm.Judge Somers then administered the oath of office to Judge Herren. This was, of course, ceremonial, as JudgeBroomes first administered the oath of office to him in 2020. Judge Herren was then helped into his black robe byhis family, wife Lisa, and daughters Brooke (Garcia), Lauren, and Taylor. Finally, we were able to hear from JudgeHerren himself. We already knew about his character from his friends and sister, and Judge Herren’s speechsolidified to all that he is a person not only of high moral fiber but also someone who reaches out to those in need.As a jurist, he pledged to respect each person in his courtroom and to decide matters fairly and according to thelaw. He showed us some humor, telling us what an investiture does not mean, and finally, what it does mean.The reception afterward occurred in the first-floor hallway and Judge Herren’s courtroom, with a variety of deliciousdesserts, catered by local Buckingham Cakes.Prior to coming on the bench, Judge Herren had little experience in bankruptcy, leading some to question why hewas chosen for this position. Listening to the speeches that day, that question was answered.BAR-0-METER - OCT 2022 Page 14
