This Section continues its joint effort with the Family &
Juvenile Law Section focusing on the issue of self-represented
litigants (SRLs). It submitted a survey to family law attorneys,
followed by a series of town hall meetings with local bar
associations, with the intent of developing best practices
guidelines for attorneys in contested cases in which the
opposing party is self-represented. The Section continued to
pursue implementation of a program for Masters education
and also evaluated numerous legislative bills, submitting
recommendations supporting, opposing or abstaining from a
position to MSBA. It also undertook the monitoring of Rules
submitted by the Rules Committee to the Court of Appeals
that may specifi cally relate to judicial administration and was
responsible for the submission of a new Rule on telephone
testimony now being considered by the Court of Appeals.
