Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed addressed the Stonewall Bar Association last night at the organization’s annual awards dinner. Reed was the keynote speaker at the dinner. The mayor promised late last week to make an announcement regarding news on the on-going Atlanta Eagle case and made good on his promise during his address last night.
“The mayor announced that he is going to form a blue ribbon panel to act as an intermediary somehow between the city and plaintiffs’ attorneys to try to resolve the case,” said Dan Grossman, an attorney for the Eagle plaintiffs who attended the dinner.
