Not that far offshore really…
On Monday I was scheduled in Nantucket District Court. For those of you who don’t know Nantucket, it is a quaint little island of about 8,000 permanent residents located about 30 miles off of Cape Cod.
I have my share of clients there and they have a vibrant district Court with a fabulous clerk Roxana E. Viera who runs a very smooth ship. They also have a Superior Court which is open two – yes, two weeks a year.
Getting to the island is an event. My closest point of departure is 122 miles away. I traveled by car, shuttle, ferry, and foot to attend the motion session at 9:30, only to return by foot, ferry, shuttle and car, arriving back at the office at 4:00 PM. I did win my motion which was a bonus.
Trial is now set for October – my favorite time of year on the island.
