TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE bridge crossing the CSX AND Norfolk southern railroad tracks along blossom street in the city of columbia in richland county "the honorable L. CASEY MANNING bridge respected judge and trailblazing gamecock" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS AT this bridge CONTAINING THESE WORDS.
Whereas, the Honorable L. Casey Manning was born in the City of Dillon in 1950, the son of Paul Manning, Sr., and Harnethea Bethea Manning; and
Whereas, he is the proud father of three children: Charlotte, Casey, Jr., and Morgan; and
Whereas, Judge Manning attended the public schools in Dillon, then furthered his education at the University of South Carolina on a basketball scholarship, receiving his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1973; and
Whereas, during his college years at the University of South Carolina, he was a scholar athlete and received both the Freshman Academic Award and the Outstanding Senior Award; and
Whereas, in 1977, Judge Manning earned his Juris Doctorate degree from the University of South Carolina School of Law; and
Whereas, upon earning his law degree, he served as an instructor at Florence-Darlington Technical College, practiced law in Dillon County, served as an assistant attorney general for the State of South Carolina, and was a partner with Walker, Morgan and Manning Law Firm in Lexington; and
Whereas, in 1994, he was elected by the General Assembly to serve as a judge for the Fifth Judicial Circuit, a position in which he has served with distinction continuously since his initial election; and
Whereas, Judge Manning is a member of the South Carolina and American Bar associations, has served on the Circuit Court Judges' Advisory Committee, South Carolina Commission on Judicial Conduct, South Carolina Sentencing Guidelines Commission, and Criminal Docketing Committee, and is a color analyst for University of South Carolina basketball games; and
Whereas, it has come to the attention of the members of the General Assembly that Judge Manning is retiring from the bench after an illustrious career as a distinguished jurist; and
Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to recognize the contributions this son of the Palmetto State has made to South Carolina's Fifth Judicial Circuit and this State by having a bridge in the City of Columbia named in his honor. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly, by this resolution, request the Department of Transportation name the bridge crossing the CSX and Norfolk Southern railroad tracks along Blossom Street in the City of Columbia in Richland County "The Honorable L. Casey Manning Bridge Respected Judge and Trailblazing Gamecock" and erect appropriate markers or signs at this bridge containing these words.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
