Snow, Christensen & Martineau Presents Sculpture to Federal Courthouse

Snow, Christensen & Martineau Presents Sculpture to Federal Courthouse

On October 15, 2011, over two hundred Utah lawyers, judges and community leaders gathered at Little America Hotel to celebrate Snow, Christensen & Martineau’s 125th anniversary.  The event was a commemoration of U.S. Supreme Court Justice George Sutherland. Snow, Christensen & Martineau traces its roots to Justice Sutherland and his law partner Sam Thurman.  Sutherland served in the Utah Senate, the U.S. Congress, U.S. Senate, and the United States Supreme Court; Thurman served in the Utah House, and on the Utah Supreme Court (1922-1938).

The culmination of the event was the presentation of a bust of Justice George Sutherland commissioned by Snow, Christensen and Martineau to Chief Judge Ted Stewart. The piece will be displayed at the new federal courthouse currently under construction in downtown Salt Lake City.
