2011/2012 ANNUAL REPORT:

The principal function of the Committee on Rules of Practice is to follow the proceedings of the Court of Appeals’ Committee on Rules and to serve as the liaison between the MSBA and the Committee on Rules. This year, at least one member of the MSBA Committee attended each meeting of the Court of Appeals’ Rules Committee and reported back to MSBA leadership as appropriate. The Committee chair also attended an evening event sponsored by the Young Lawyers Section; the event was designed to inform some of the Association’s younger members about the Committee and to solicit interest in serving on an MSBA Committee.
