TBA President Tasha Blakney presented U.S. District Court Judge Katherine A. Crytzer with a ceremonial gavel on behalf of the association during Friday's investiture ceremony. The event was organized by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee and held at the Howard H. Baker Jr. United States Courthouse in Knoxville. Crytzer was nominated to the bench by former President Donald Trump and was confirmed by the U.S. Senate in 2020. She replaces former U.S. District Judge and former TBA President Pamela Reeves, who died earlier that year after a battle with cancer. Crytzer previously was the principal deputy assistant attorney general in the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Policy.
