Marianna Brown Bettman / April 2012

Marianna, who organizes the Judge in Residence program, arranged for the Hon. Randall Shepard (ret.) of the Indiana Supreme Court to visit the College on April 10-12.  During his visit, Justice Shepard delivered College-wide comments entitled, Subpoenas for Judges? A Response to Newt Gingrich; met informally with several student groups; and participated in many classes.

Marianna moderated a panel, Judges and the Media, for the current CALL (Cincinnati Academy of Leadership for Lawyers) class.

Marianna attended the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals Judicial Conference in Lexington as the delegate for Hon. Martha Craig Daughtrey.

Marianna published Must Police Have a Warrant to Stop a Person to Render Aid? as part of her monthly column, Legally Speaking, in the April 5 issue of the American Israelite.

Marianna posted nine new entries this month on her blog, Legally Speaking Ohio, where she provides insightful commentary on the happenings of the Ohio Supreme Court on varied topics, such as: the constitutionality of the Medical Malpractice Statute of Repose; application of the Recreational Activities Rule to a collision between a skier and a snowboarder; the winner of the 2010 Hamilton County Juvenile Court election; a mandamus action challenging the Northeast Coalition for the Homeless consent decree; application of the Punitive Damages cap statute to multiple defendants; punishing juvenile sex offenders; voluntary dismissals under Civ.R. 41(A)(1)(a); relying more on the Ohio Constitution; and standing and real party in interest in a foreclosure action.
