Now's your chance to give back, or give a young person the chance you never had. Michigan's premier law-related education organization, the Michigan Center for Civic Education, urgently needs volunteers to serve as judges and bailiffs/timekeepers for the upcoming Michigan High School Mock Trial Tournament. The State Bar of Michigan is a sponsor. Go here for more information. Register here.
Volunteers have the option of serving for two morning trials, from 7:45 a.m.–1:15 p.m. or one afternoon trial, from 1:30–4:30 p.m. on two different days:
- March 5 at U.S. District Court in Detroit
- March 5 at Kent County Courthouse in Grand Rapids
- March 12 at Oakland County Courthouse in Pontiac
