Opportunity: Assist in Preparation for Jury Trial

Attorney John Hill of Buckingham, Doolittle, and Burroughs will be trying a wrongful death case later this year. He is organizing a focus group to serve as a quasi-jury that would react to the evidence as he expects it to be presented at trial. The session would take approximately 2 ½ hours, probably on September 25.  He will pay $35 for each participant in the session. Location and exact time to be determined, but reasonably convenient to the law school.

If you are interested, call his assistant, Kim Dornack, at 330-258-6433 by Wednesday, September 11.
