Nelson Mullins’ Brown to Serve as President of S.C. Supreme Court Historical Society
COLUMBIA, S.C. – C. Mitchell Brown, a partner in Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough’s Columbia office, has been named President of the South Carolina Supreme Court Historical Society.
Mr. Brown primarily practices in the appellate courts, where he has made over 60 oral arguments. He is a Fellow in the American Academy of Appellate Lawyers. He is also a former Law Clerk to Chief Justice Jean H. Toal of the South Carolina Supreme Court.
The South Carolina Supreme Court Historical Society was formed in 1997 to study and promote the history of the South Carolina Bench and Bar. It has put on a number of programs over the years, including most recently a study and celebration of the dissent of Federal Judge Waites Waring in the Briggs v. Elliott case from South Carolina– one of the cases leading to the United States Supreme Court's unanimous decision in Brown v. Board of Education.
