Memphis Law Animal Advocacy to visit former Senator, Judge Curtis Person

On Wednesday, October 29th, members of Memphis Law Animal Advocacy will meet with Judge Curtis Person in his office downtown. 

Judge Person has been a long-term friend to animals as a member of the Tennessee Legislature where he served as a representative for two years and as a senator for 38 years. Senator Person is responsible, along with now Congressman Steve Cohen, for Bill 2929 during the 102nd General Assembly. It is now Public Charter 774. This bill was the first of its kind in this state, and requires the licensure of dog and cat dealers who exceed a number of pet sales, permits confiscation of endangered animals, and authorizes inspection of vehicles to transport animals.

Memphis Law Animal Advocacy is indebted to Judge Person for sharing his time with us.
