Law school to conduct
Annual Red Mass September 22
The University of Detroit Mercy School of Law invites the legal community to celebrate the 114th Annual Red Mass on Tuesday, September 22, beginning at noon at Ss. Peter & Paul Jesuit Church, 438 Saint Antoine in Detroit.
Red Mass is an occasion for judges, attorneys, civic leaders and law students of all faiths to come together and pray for blessings and strength in the coming year’s work. A luncheon reception in the atrium at Detroit Mercy Law School immediately follows the service.
This year’s Red Mass will be celebrated by Archbishop Edward J. Weisenburger, Archdiocese of Detroit. U.S. District Court Chief Judge Stephen J. Murphy, Eastern District of Michigan, will lead the Renewal of the Lawyer’s Oath of Commitment.
Detroit Mercy Law’s annual Red Mass dates back to 1877, when Detroit College, as the university was then known, began its first year with a Mass at Ss. Peter and Paul Jesuit Church.
The School of Law continued the tradition when it opened in 1912, again hosting the Red Mass on behalf of the Archdiocese of Detroit at Ss. Peter and Paul through the present.

Webinar looks into
‘Advancing Criminal History Reporting’
The National Center for State Courts will present the webinar “Advancing Criminal History Reporting through NODS” on Tuesday, September 8, from 3 to 4 p.m.
Timely and accurate criminal history reporting supports public safety, decision-making, and justice system operations. Courts play a critical role by generating and transmitting case disposition data to state repositories and systems.
In the September Data Dives webinar, attendees will see a demonstration of criminal history reporting dashboards that showcase how courts and justice partners can better assess reporting performance, data quality, and interoperability.
The session will also highlight findings from the recently released report, “Advancing Criminal History Reporting Through NODS: Implementation, Findings, and Recommendations,” developed by NCSC in partnership with SEARCH. Drawing on insights from courts and justice partners, the report examines how the National Open Court Data Standards (NODS) can potentially strengthen criminal history reporting and improve data exchange across justice systems.
Speaking at the webinar will be Andrew Ranson, senior court management consultant, NCSC; Derek Veitenheimer, executive director, SEARCH; Shay Cleary, principal court management consultant, NCSC.
