A spirited Jeopardy! game that focused on Black history trivia was the centerpiece of a Black History Month celebration on Feb. 13 that honored more than a dozen of Broward’s Black judges and magistrates. The event – which pitted judge against judge – kicked off with speakers and presentations at NSU’s Shepard Broad College of Law and ended with a game show competition that devolved in laughter. The amazing event was sponsored by the The T.J. Reddick Bar Association, the Broward County Bar Association and the 17th Judicial Circuit.

Would-be lawyers from the Trial Advocacy Skills Institute TASI JR Mock Trial Advanced Homeschool Program had their day in court this week during a mock trial competition. The students argued their cases before County Court Judge Kal Evans, who presided during the students’ mock trial. A great experience made possible by judges who devote their time and expertise to make such experiences fun and educational. #17thJudTeam
