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

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
