==Director of the Federal Bar Association (Mar. 2023 - Aug. 2023)== In the middle of February 2023, tensions flared between the U.S. Department of Justice, of which Fogarty had been leading as Attorney General, and the Federal Bar Association due to concerns about the Director of the F.B.A., Stickza, who had become unresponsive and postponed the release of the Federal Bar Examination, originally scheduled for early February 2023. Due to these tensions, Fogarty reportedly initiated communication with the U.S. Supreme Court, advocating for substantial changes and reforms within the Bar Association. In response, the Supreme Court concurred with these demands. On March 1, 2023, the United States Supreme Court relieved Stickza of his responsibilities as the Director of the Federal Bar Association. Acknowledging his "unwavering commitment to the law," the Court appointed Fogarty as the Second Director of the Federal Bar Association. This decision was made with the aim of not only expediting the release of the examination but also reinvigorating the legal community's waning activity. === Release of the Federal Bar Examination === Upon his appointment to the Federal Bar Association, Fogarty quickly commenced collaboration with the Associate Justice for Bar Oversight, RummyLeroux, as well as officials from the U.S. Department of Justice. Their primary goal was to design an examination that could comprehensively evaluate the legal capabilities and understanding of legal theory for all prospective attorneys, irrespective of their experience, of which was criticized by multiple members of the community due to its difficult nature. This new examination was divided into three sections: (1) a multiple-choice section, (2) a short-response section, and (3) an essay response section. The initial examination was released on June 9, 2023, nearly three months after Fogarty assumed his role following the Supreme Court's appointment. During Fogarty's tenure as Director of the Federal Bar Association, the Federal Bar Examination certified a total of forty-five new attorneys, granting them the right to practice law within the District of Colorado and the District of Columbia. === Reorganization of the Association === During his tenure as Director of the Federal Bar Association, Fogarty undertook a significant effort to revamp the association's mission, objectives, and divisions. Remarkably, his predecessor, Stickza, failed to furnish Fogarty with any of the documents or records pertaining to the work he had accomplished prior to Fogarty's assumption of the Director role. Consequently, Fogarty had to begin the reorganization process from the ground up. Some of his accomplishments in reorganizing the association included: * Establishing a comprehensive organizational structure<ref>[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bzP6DL9eLT1xugOetA3GPdRiwByQJulg/view?usp=sharing Statement of Organization https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bzP6DL9eLT1xugOetA3GPdRiwByQJulg/view?usp=sharing]</ref> that clearly defined the roles and responsibilities of every officer within the association. * Formulating an attorney ethics code<ref>[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hxNbwtVCf3PybJhITIUfPWYZw0w3MbmY/view?usp=sharing Attorneys Code of Ethics https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hxNbwtVCf3PybJhITIUfPWYZw0w3MbmY/view?usp=sharing]</ref> that notably included a provision banning the submission of briefs and participation in legal proceedings by OpenAI and other artificial intelligence software, ensuring human oversight and accountability. * Creating a judges' code of ethics<ref>https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sfEKAujJMumTZK2bDceLb-OEibDE2ZDR/view?usp=sharing</ref> to serve as a guiding framework for judges, encouraging them to adhere to "ethical behavior." This code of ethics fostered a direct, coordinated relationship with the U.S. Congress, which held the authority to take action against judges who violated the established ethical standards. === Retirement === On August 9, 2023, Fogarty announced his retirement<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/1135246108575154219/1135261708420649142/1137913061861245039 Federal Bar Association Discord, Fogarty Announcement https://discord.com/channels/1135246108575154219/1135261708420649142/1137913061861245039]</ref> from the Federal Bar Association after serving for five months as the Director. Fogarty recommended five individuals to succeed him. Some of these individuals included Jonofdoom, Moneymack9999, JamesMontagu, and others who were not publicized.
