Future lawyers got a courtroom seat right in their own law school Wednesday as the 3rd District Court of Appeals heard arguments in two cases at Ohio Northern University.
Afterward, students were allowed to ask the judges and participating attorneys questions on just about any topic except the cases just argued.
“If you could give one piece of advice to yourself while still in law school what would it be?” one student asked.
Judge Stephen Shaw responded, “Have more fun,” before explaining he had all the fun he could stand. Shaw, the senior judge on the court known more for his serious nature then told the students about how the seed was planted to be an appellate court judge.
He attended a similar demonstration where three judges conducted exercises with students as if they were in a courtroom.
