A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS DEEP AND SINCERE GRATITUDE TO H. DONALD SELLERS OF GREENVILLE COUNTY FOR HIS YEARS OF DEVOTED SERVICE AS A MEMBER OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA JUDICIAL MERIT SELECTION COMMISSION AND TO WISH HIM SUCCESS AND FULFILLMENT IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, aware that this great State could not carry out its diverse duties without the assistance of the many citizens who selflessly serve, the South Carolina House of Representatives is grateful for the many years of service H. Donald Sellers has given to the Palmetto State as a member of its Judicial Merit Selection Commission; and

Whereas, beginning in 2007, Don Sellers served with distinction on the South Carolina Judicial Merit Selection Commission until his retirement from the commission in 2014. During this time, the process of selecting judges in this State benefitted tremendously from Don's experience as an attorney and from his wise judgement; and

Whereas, with more than thirty-five years of exceptional work in litigation, Mr. Sellers heads the distinguished Business Litigation and Professional Liability Practice Group in the Greenville office of Haynsworth Sinkler Boyd, P.A., one of the most prominent law firms in the State; and

Whereas, he is listed in The Best Lawyers in America for Commercial Litigation and Professional Malpractice Law-Defendants, and in 2014 also was named a Fellow of the Litigation Counsel of America; and

Whereas, a certified civil court mediator, Mr. Sellers has served clients in jury trials, arbitrations, and mediations to recover millions of dollars in business-related damages; and

Whereas, Mr. Sellers is a member of the Greenville County Bar, the South Carolina Bar, the American Bar Association, the Donald James Sampson Chapter of the National Bar Association, the Federal Bar Association, and the Defense Research Institute; and

Whereas, among his myriad community activities, he serves on the American Board of Trial Advocates, The Family Effect board of directors of Greenville, and the Artisphere board; and

Whereas, with sincere appreciation for his outstanding contributions to the South Carolina Judicial Merit Selection Commission, the South Carolina House of Representatives bids farewell to Don Sellers, and the members bid him every good wish in the days ahead. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express their deep and sincere appreciation to H. Donald Sellers of Greenville County for his years of devoted service as a member of the South Carolina Judicial Merit Selection Commission and wish him success and fulfillment in all his future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to H. Donald Sellers.
