'Judge for a Day’ program announced

SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah State Courts are planning the seventh annual “Judge for a Day” program in recognition of Law Day, which is celebrated May 1.

High school students are selected to participate in the program based on an essay, civic involvement resume or teacher nomination letter. The topic, for students who choose to write an essay, is “The American Jury: We the People in Action.”

Students selected to participate in the program will be paired with a judge in one of the state’s eight judicial districts for one day in either April or May.

Students are asked to submit an application form by March 2. Forms and information are at www.utcourts.gov/media/lawday.
