On Friday, February 10, 2023, the Conrad and Scherer law firm brought students from their “Pathways
to a Career in Law” program to the courthouse. Students were led by Mr. William Scherer, and his wife
Anne, as they observed the Honorable Elizabeth Scherer in court during her morning docket.
The students then came to the Honorable Robert F. Diaz’s courtroom where he and the Honorable Betsy
Benson talked about their legal careers and answered questions. Students also had lunch with Chief
Judge Jack Tuter and later attended the investiture of our two new judges, The Honorable Catalina
Avalos and the Honorable Francis Viamontes.
