En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recounts the life of John Alan Dickerson, Sr., who was born in Anderson, South Carolina in 1946, attended Clemson University, and went on to a distinguished legal career in Georgia, earning honors such as the Chief Justice Thomas O. Marshall Professionalism Award from the State Bar of Georgia. The resolution formally expresses the House's regret at his passing and honors his memory on behalf of the state. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for delivery to Dickerson's family. The resolution does not create, amend, or repeal any Georgia statute.
