The Massachusetts Bar Association invites you to
participate in Court Advocacy Day on Monday, March 19 at the Grand Staircase
inside the Statehouse. Beginning at 11 a.m., the event will help reiterate the
need for adequate funding to sustain the critical needs of the Massachusetts
Court System. The event will open with a brief speaking program, after which
attendees will be encouraged
to meet with their local legislators.
An effort of the MBA and Boston Bar Association along with county and
specialty bars, the event complements the MBA's ongoing awareness campaign on
this topic.
The event will include speaking remarks from:
- Supreme Judicial Court Chief Justice Roderick L. Ireland;
- Chief Justice for Administration and Management Robert A. Mulligan;
- MBA President Richard P. Campbell; and
- Boston Bar Association President Lisa Goodheart.
The MBA and BBA organized a similar grass-roots lobbying effort in
2009.
