Volunteer attorneys, judges, legal assistants, and law students are needed to serve as judges and court officers.

State finals are scheduled in Lansing on March 25.
This year’s case is a civil matter in which the plaintiff alleges excessive force during an arrest. The defendant police officer and police department claim the force utilized during the arrest was justified and that their practices are reasonable.
