Krom, Meyers Win Nominations to Common Pleas Court
Franklin County Assistant District Attorney Angela Krom and Franklin County Solicitor Shawn Meyers won the Republican and Democratic nominations to the Court of Common Pleas of the 39th Judicial District in the May 19 primary election.
Angela and Shawn's names will appear on the November general election ballot for the two seats open on the Court of Common Pleas, which includes Franklin and Fulton counties.
The Franklin County Bar Association congratulates Angela and Shawn, and applauds all four candidates -- Angela, Shawn, Eric Weisbrod and Tim Wilmot -- for the conduct of their campaigns and their dedication to the administration of justice in our county.

Bar Program Provides Wills to Firefighters
Firefighters put their lives on the line every day to protect their communities, yet national statistics show too few of them have taken all the necessary steps to ensure the future of their loved ones should anything happen to them. A project of the Young Lawyers Division of the Franklin County Bar Association is helping to ease that burden.
Through the Florian Project, attorneys provide basic estate-planning documents -- simple wills, powers of attorney and living wills or medical directives -- to local firefighters at no cost to them. Firefighters interested in the program should talk with their chief. Additional information also is available by clicking on the Contact FCBA link on the left side of this page.
