The Courthouse Forum


Judging by the number of posts in local forums, there is intense interest in local trials, judges' rulings, and similar legal matters. While it appears to be underutilized, the Courthouse Forum allows individuals from all areas of the country to keep track of legal proceedings at many levels. You may not find what you're looking for, but you just may have the privilege of being the first to post an opinion on members of the local elected judiciary.
