Participants will listen to and evaluate brief presentations of an actual lawsuit filed in Mecklenburg County. Our intention is for you to provide feedback on the information given about the case. Everyone who has participated in these projects reports them to be extremely interesting, enjoyable, and worthwhile.
You must be able to attend in person and show an NC I.D., showing you live in Mecklenburg County, NC.
