The Chief Justice of the Vermont Supreme Court, Paul Reiber, says a
chronic under funding of the state’s judicial system is beginning to have a
serious impact on Vermont’s court
system.
Reiber told a special legislative
panel that he’s projecting a million dollar deficit in this
year’s budget. And Reiber says there are no easy ways to deal with the shortfall.
The U.S. Supreme Court begins a new session on Monday, and a few of the cases on its docket have Vermont ties. Vermont Law School professor Cheryl Hanna walks us through some of those cases. Also, the musicians of the Vermont Youth Orchestra take us along on their concert tour in China.
