Two hot topics are covered in this month's issue: Workers' comp and the new "guns in trunks" law. Russell Fowler looks back at the history of workers' comp from the pirates and Prussians to today, while Edward Phillips and Brandon L. Morrow examine the new gun law that allows employees who hold a valid handgun-carry permit to bring their firearms onto their employers' parking lots. President Jackie Dixon wraps up her year, Kathryn Reed Edge takes a look into the famous bank robbers of our time (spotlight on the Butcher brothers), Monica Franklin gives tips to punch up that power of attorney, and Bill Haltom speaks out in defense of seersucker.
