Justices of the Michigan Supreme Court journeyed to northern Michigan last week, visiting Petoskey for the Court Community Connections program. The seven-member court, which is missing one member since the recent retirement of Justice Robert Young, heard oral argument at Petoskey High School, offering students an opportunity to better understand the appellate courts and Michigan’s judicial system. In a photo op at the program, seven judges from Emmet and Charlevoix counties joined their state judicial colleagues for the occasion. On hand for the event were (front row, left to right) Justices Joan L. Larsen, David F. Viviano and Brian K. Zahra, Chief Justice Stephen J. Markman, Justices Bridget M. McCormack and Justice Richard H. Bernstein; along with (back row) Hon. James N. Erhart, 90th District Court; Hon. Allie Maldonado, Little Traverse Bay Band of Odawa Tribal Court; Hon. Frederick R. Mulhauser, Emmet and Charlevoix Probate Court; Hon. Charles D. Johnson, 57th Circuit Court, Emmet County; Hon. Roy C. Hayes III, 33rd Circuit Charlevoix County; Hon. Richard M. Pajtas, 33rd Circuit Court Charlevoix County; and Hon. Richard W. May, retired, 90th District Court.
