ADA matters because people matter

Out of Office. A running log of the State Bar of Georgia’s away messages, and what landed the same day. I am noting the timing. I am not claiming a reason.

June 17, 2026.

The day I sent a list of outstanding ADA compliance questions, two people at the State Bar were out of office. Two others read it within hours and said nothing.

The Governmental Affairs Director, Jennifer McNeely, was out:

“Thank you for your message. I am out of the office from June 17 through June 22. I will respond to your message upon my return to the office. If your matter is urgent, please contact Executive Director Damon Elmore at damone@gabar.org.”

So was an Office of the General Counsel staff member:

“I am currently out of the office until June 19th. I will get back to you upon my return.”

Two away messages on the same questions. Meanwhile, the read receipts show the Chief Operating Officer and the Deputy General Counsel both opened the message within hours. Some of the office was away. The rest was present and reading. Neither group answered the questions.

Running log of the State Bar of Georgia out-of-office replies and what landed the same day.

Read the record: the full State Bar of Georgia record, and this day on the Timeline.

Status: two officials were out of office; two others read the questions within hours; the questions went unanswered.


Patterns on this page: out-of-office, read-no-answer. Each is a recurring pattern in the State Bar record. I am noting the timing, not asserting a reason.


Corrections: this is built from documents I received. If any fact here is incomplete or inaccurate, identify the page, the sentence, and the supporting document, and I will review and correct the record.
