Speaking to a select group of invitees and professional members of AIM – American Institute of Management, Hon, Judge Lott gave his own family example how they gave education priority in life.

The chief guest said that he was indebted to his mother who was a school teacher and was on top of things to make sure her children got good education. He said his mother was so focused that she did not let the judge skip over a grade for his excellent school report. She talked his teacher out of it and made go through the entire grades. The judge said that it was because his grandparents and parents took keen interest in the education of their children that led his family members acquire sound education at time when the community faced many challenges.

Later, when a counselor suggested to him to a class in carpentry Judge Lott’s mom made sure he took more academic subjects instead.

In response to judge’s motivation, the master of ceremonies said Fiji Americans as an immigrant community and descendants of indentured laborers looked up to American leaders like Abraham Lincoln and Dr. Martin Luther King as models to achieve their goals.

Judge Lott handed out awards to several nominees of the Fiji Awards Night and to first group of accredited Fellows of the American Institute of Management that was part of the event at the awards night.

After his graduation from Oakland Public School, Judge Lott did his undergraduate at Cal State Hayward and studied law at UC Davis. He was deputy city attorney for 5 years for City of San Jose and deputy county counsel for 23 years for Alameda County.

In March 2001 he was appointed commissioner and over traffic cases, small claims, misdemeanor arraignment and did civil case management.  In 2007 Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger appointed him as Judge. 

Judge Lott loves bike riding, camping and traveling. He a member of KAPPA ALPHA PSI fraternity, National Bar Association, California Bar Association and Charleston Houston Bar Association.

AHMADI MUSLIM 4 PACE - AHMADI MUSLIMS 4 PEACE

WITH THE CREATION OF AHMADI MUSLIMS 4 PEACE, we wanted to put things in proper perspective.  For over a 100 years the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community founded by late Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian,  India has been promoting world peace as taught by the Holy Quran. Peace is the corner stone of the Ahmadiyya Muslim teaching. The JEHAD as taught by the mainstream Mullahs is against the teaching of Islam and we condemn and denounced. Our beloved Imam Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad declared the such a war of JIHAD is  HARAM. The Mainstream Muslims in USA only started denouncing JIHAD after the tragic incident of 911. Go back and look at their history and slogans prior to 911.  They came on the same page as Ahmadi Muslims.   More recently, they have begun styling like us and now call themselves MUSLIMS 4 PEACE a line stolen directly from websites.  Before this, they were not Muslims for Peace. They are a Johnny Come Late on the international peace. THE AHMADIYYA
