Justices head to Marquette for ‘Court Community Connections’ program Sept. 24
As part of its “Court Community Connections” program, the Michigan Supreme Court will hear oral argument in People v. Jeffrey Scott Armstrong at Northern Michigan University – Northern Center, 540 W. Kaye Ave. in Marquette, on Tuesday, September 24, beginning at 9 a.m. (argument will begin promptly at 10 a.m.). Student debriefing sessions led by Supreme Court Chief Commissioner Daniel C.

Community Connections” program:
• Father Marquette School
