VERSIONS OF THIS BILL

5/31/2006

TO RECOGNIZE AND COMMEND THE HONORABLE JACKSON V. GREGORY OF THE FOURTEENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT FOR HIS EXEMPLARY SERVICE TO THE SOUTH CAROLINA JUDICIARY AND THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA AND TO WISH HIM ALL THE BEST UPON HIS RETIREMENT.

Whereas, born on March 15, 1941 in Jefferson, South Carolina to George W. and Harriet Venters Gregory, Judge Jackson V. Gregory graduated from Clemson University in 1964 and earned his Juris Doctor from the University of South Carolina in 1967; and

Whereas, upon graduation from law school, Judge Gregory worked as a law clerk to the Honorable Bruce Littlejohn, Associate Justice of the South Carolina Supreme Court. He began practicing law in Walterboro, South Carolina in 1969 as an associate of James P. Harrelson, with whom he later served as a partner in the firm Harrelson and Gregory, prior to his becoming a sole practitioner; and

Whereas, Judge Gregory is the proud and devoted father of three daughters, Frances Gregory, Hallie Desmonts, and Anna Gregory; and

Whereas, Judge Gregory was elected to the South Carolina House of Representatives in 1980 and served with distinction until 1991. During his tenure in the General Assembly, Judge Gregory served on the Judiciary Committee, the Medical, Military, Public and Municipal Affairs Committee, and the State Reorganization Committee; and

Whereas, in 1991, Judge Gregory was elected Judge of the Fourteenth Judicial Circuit and has served the bench in immeasurable capacities since that time, presiding with decorum and ruling with wisdom, intellect, and compassion, and has been greatly aided by his very able administrative assistant, Gloria G. Williams; and

Whereas, the Fourteenth Judicial Circuit and the State of South Carolina are fortunate to have had Judge Gregory give over twenty-five years of his time and talents to both the General Assembly and Judiciary, and the members of the House of Representatives are sure that he will go on to make further indelible marks on this great State and nation in the years to come; and

Whereas, it is proper and fitting that the members of the House of Representatives pause in their deliberations to recognize such a fine statesman, distinguished jurist, and outstanding son of South Carolina. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the House of Representatives of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, commend and honor the Honorable Jackson V. Gregory of the Fourteenth Judicial Circuit for his exemplary service to the South Carolina Judiciary and the State of South Carolina and wish him all the best upon his retirement.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Judge Jackson V. Gregory.
