Editor's Note:
In the July 18, 2018 issue, the Bar Bulletin published an announcement for an upcoming sexual assault CLE seminar by the New Mexico Criminal Defense Lawyers Association. The State Bar of New Mexico received several complaints about the appropriateness of the title the NMCDLA chose to use for the CLE, which was published in the Bar Bulletin. The State Bar agrees with the concerns of our readers, understanding the sensitivity and seriousness of the issue. We regret that we did not consider the title more carefully during proofreading. We have modified the online version of the issue and have advised the NMCDLA of the concerns. We invite readers to contact notices@nmbar.org if they have additional questions or concerns.
