Reflections on Supreme Court Visit (U.S. Legal System Mini-Course)
"The judges were approachable and friendly and not as stern or even “judicial” as they may seem. It was noticeable that all of the judges had obviously worked very diligently to obtain their positions and that they were all clearly men and women of virtue. Justice Boyd was insightful and extremely knowledgeable about the history of the Texas Supreme Court and was passionate about the work. Overall I enjoyed this opportunity and I am looking forward to the future trips we will be taking. (Kate Brady, 22)
"I really appreciate Justice Boyd taking us on the tour and speaking to us; if given the chance, I hope to either work next to him or learn about law from him someday." (Grant Fahrlander, 22)
"While talking to Justice Boyd he explained to us that in court there are two arguments that are fought during trial, factual issues and legal issues. These issues help the court determine which cases will be accepted or rejected into the Supreme Court for trial and the cases that are chosen should provide a clearer understanding of an existing law and aid other cases similar to it." (Isabella Oballo, '20)
