Runaway Bay - Chapter 15
Unmerited Favor
Mike’s induction into the law society fraternity. He’s on the far left.
The Supreme Court?!?
From Chapter 15:
Mike: Here’s another thing—very few lawyers are admitted to the Supreme Court of the United States. I was working on a case when the lead attorney in Dallas told me, “Mike, I want you to be a member of the Court. You may need to appear.” And in the mail, here comes my application. I was admitted. To the Supreme Court!
Things like that I don’t think I deserved.
Amy and I looked for his letter of admittance to the Supreme Court of the United States - which would have been a wonderful image for this chapter titled “Unmerited Favor” - but it must have been misplaced in a move, because it wasn’t in the boxes of papers and photos. If we find it, we’ll add it to this page.
A couple of words about this website of “bonus material” for Runaway Bay:
Amy didn’t create it … Thomas did. You may have already guessed that the “I” in the captions isn’t Amy, but me - her husband.
( She doesn’t really like websites. Or QR codes for that matter. Or bulleted lists like this one - a dead giveaway that she didn’t write this part. )Therefore I don’t mind making the shameless plug - if you are enjoying her phenomenal book, would you be willing to put a review on Amazon? As Amy’s “publishing partner” the one surprising thing I’ve seen is this: people love her writing, and even volunteer their time to email or text her with their responses … but getting them to post a quick review on Amazon is a whole ‘nother level of hard.

Thank you so much!
Amy and I celebrating our 35th anniversary in Phoenix, Arizona.
