Visit From Commissioner Maxwell

April11

Since the fifth grade students have been reading The Witch of Blackbird Pond, the story of a young girl being put on trial for practicing witchcraft, we have had many discussions about what makes a trial fair. We have discussed the rights guaranteed to United States citizens in the Constitution. To further understand the judicial system, I invited Commissioner Maxwell to speak to our class about how the judicial process works. Commissioner Maxwell began her legal career as an attorney practicing in the area of civil litigation. She was later commissioned to serve as a judge, overseeing criminal cases involving infractions and misdemeanors  in Santa Barbara. This is her fourth year as a commissioner.
