I rise briefly, and with great pride, to commend to my colleagues the confirmation of Marc Treadwell from the State of Georgia to be a U.S. district court judge of the Middle District of Georgia. Marc is all Georgian. He was born in Blackshear, and he traveled around as the son of an Army officer. But he came back and attended Valdosta State where he earned his bachelor's degree, and then he graduated from Mercer University's Walter F. George Law School in Macon. After graduating, he came to Atlanta and, ironically, practiced law at the firm of Kilpatrick & Cody, which represented my company for years in Atlanta. It is one of the most distinguished law firms in the State of Georgia. Marc has been inducted into the American College of Trial Lawyers, and Martindale-Hubbell gave him an 'AV,' its highest designation. Marc now teaches at his alma mater, Mercer, and he has written more than 50 publications for Law Reviews and other publications. He is recognized as a leading authority and expert in Georgia evidence law. Marc is married to his beautiful wife Wimberly. They have two sons, Thomas and John. In addition to juggling his law practice, teaching, and family duties, Marc finds time to be an active member of the Vineville United Methodist Church in Macon.
