Summary Court Judge Rob Chumley was the guest speaker for the July dinner meeting of camp 36, 16th Regiment, South Carolina Volunteers and their guests. His topic was “Nullification and the South.”
Nullification, first enunciated in the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions of 1798, was expanded by South Carolina statesman John C. Calhoun in response to the Tariff of 1828. This historical fact tied the word to the true history of the South.
Chumley is a cum laude graduate of Clemson University, a graduate of Cumberland School of Law, and earned his Doctor of Jurisprudence from Sanford University.
