I recently experienced a very special event that I wish to share.
Roughly one hundred years ago, my paternal grandfather, Janos Mizanyin came to Cleveland from Velky Rusko, Slovakia to make a better life for his family. The Mizanyin name was changed to Misny in America.
One hundred years later, to celebrate my 50th birthday, I made a pilgrimage to Solvakia to meet family members and lecture at a local law school.
It was indeed touching and invigorating to talk with the law faculty and students about the rights of the injured victim. Amazingly, all of our families have suffered a horrible loss at some point in our history.
It is my burning desire to protect those inalienable rights that is the common thread throughout the tapestry of every legal system. |
