Retired after 27 years on the bench, Miller-Lerman joked her timely retirement secured the last available spot — and she reflected on her legacy of shaping legal arguments and court culture. Chief Justice Jeffrey Funke hailed the portrait as a beacon of possibility for future generations, especially young women in law. With only one woman currently on Nebraska’s high court — placing it among eight states with minimal female representation — the portrait underscores a national trend: women hold 43% of all state supreme court seats, with 20 states seeing female majorities. Experts like the Brennan Center stress that diverse judicial panels lead to better decisions and greater public trust. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
