As part of its “Court Community Connections” program, the Michigan Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in In re Sherrod Estate, No. 168598, in the Southeastern High School auditorium beginning at 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday, October 14, at Southeastern High School, 3030 Fairview Street in Detroit.
In the days leading up to the event, students will participate in a pre-argument briefing provided by local attorneys. Michigan Supreme Court Commissioners will also offer an additional pre-argument briefing for those who may not have had the opportunity to host a local attorney visit. This will be followed by oral argument and a post-argument debrief led by the Michigan Supreme Court chief operating officer.
The program will also include a question-and-answer session with the attorneys. After the hearing, students will have the opportunity to meet the justices and take photos at a reception.
“Court Community Connections” is one of the Michigan Supreme Court’s longest-standing public education and engagement initiatives. Since its launch in 2007, the program has provided students with a firsthand opportunity to observe the judicial process and engage directly with the court. In addition to hearing cases at the Michigan Hall of Justice in Lansing, the court travels to communities statewide through this program, which is aimed primarily at high school students. This will be the 34th time the court has convened in a community setting to hear a case at another location.
Online streaming of oral arguments and other hearings will begin shortly before hearings begin. Streaming will begin only when the court is in session and on the bench.
