Thank you to Director of Community Outreach and Engagement Eileen Sweeney for moderating this conversation and @RIJudiciary for your partnership on this educational opportunity for our students.
These individuals represent some of RI’s different court systems- ensuring there is a multi-tiered approach to examining unconscious bias in RI’s Judicial branch. Students asked questions of each Judiciary leader during dinner to learn more about their role in serving RIers.
RI’s Committee on Racial & Ethnic Fairness in the Courts was created as a direct response to public protests & unrest in 2020. They are committed to increasing confidence in RI’s court system by addressing instances of systemic racism & understanding the experiences of RIers.
What a fun moment! Students were able to go on a tour of the State Law Library, try on some robes, and learn about some of RI’s rich legal history.
Rhode Island’s Judiciary has many different career options for young Rhode Islanders. Students met with RI Superior Court Justice Christopher Smith and other members of the Superior Court team to learn about their path to the Judicial branch and the role of the Superior Court.
Chief Justice Suttell and Associate Justice Erin Lynch-Prata then showed students around the beautiful Rhode Island Supreme Court hearing room.
Next up was an incredible welcome from RI Supreme Court Chief Justice Paul Suttell at the Licht Judicial Complex. He lead a conversation on the importance of the Constitution in our democracy and RI’s legal system.
The first stop of the day was the District Court! RI District Court hears cases regarding small claims, municipal ordinance violations, and misdemeanors where the right to a jury trial has been waived.
The #RhodeIsland Judiciary was honored to welcome students participating in the @RISecState RI Civic Leadership Summit on Thursday. Students learned about the integral role the Judiciary plays in state government and how they can participate in civic life through jury service.
