Marianna
Bettman
Marianna helped two Legal Aid lawyers prepare for oral argument in an
appeal involving tenants' rights in public housing. (They were successful
in the appeal). She also joined with Verna Williams and several lawyers
from the community in helping local practitioner Sally Frye prepare for
argument before the Ohio Supreme Court in a gay-rights case that received
widespread coverage in the media. The case involves the attempt by the
non-birth mother in a long-term committed lesbian relationship to be adjudicated
a parent to the children the two women are raising together. Verna Williams
took a number of her students to Columbus to hear this argument, and Marianna
arranged with Justice Alice Robie Resnick for the students to visit with
her in her chambers. Marianna had the singular honor to be the guest of
Justice Resnick at a very small dinner party in Columbus for Justice Ruth
Bader Ginsburg, who spoke at the Bench/Bar Conference in Columbus.
