The Irish American
Law Society of
Cleveland
A professional association fostering the profession of law among individuals of Irish ancestry.
On July 3, 2013, 27 Cleveland lawyers of Irish descent joined together to form the Irish American Law Society of Cleveland.
In forming the group, we were building on a tradition started by the law firm of Collins & Scanlon, which has brought visiting legal dignitaries from Ireland for St.Patrick’s Day each year since 1998 and gathered Cleveland’s legal community to welcome and honor them.
We seek to promote closer affiliations between the bench, the bar, students of law, and the community, and to further a hight standard of legal ethics. The Society provides a forum for educational, cultural and social activites concerning Irish heritage and tradition.

Topic:  Mask Mandates and Court Updates

Attorney Dan Karon will present a 30 minute program discussing the Constitutionality of Mask Mandates followed by a 30 minute panel discussion by judges of the various divisions of the Court of Common Pleas and Appellate Court with court updates regarding Covid protocols and court operations.

Dan Karon has published an article in the Columbia Law School Blue Sky Blog titled “To Mask or not to Mask? It’s not a Constitutional Question”.  Dan presents a humorous and insightful review of case law and case studies from challenges to the right of KKK members to wear hoods to the current debate about mask mandates.

The judges panel is expected to include Judge Brendan Sheehan, Administrative and Presiding Judge of the Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas General Division, Judge Colleen Reali of the Domestic Relations Division, Judge Laura Gallagher of the Probate Division and Judge Michelle Sheehan, Court of Appeals.
