Both Judge Gail Ray and Judge Ron Johnson Hold Court at Southern University Law Center

Judge Gail Ray held her rule day docket at the Southern University Law Center on Thursday, October 19, 2023, and Judge Ron Johnson held his docket on November 13, 2023. The Judges and their staff traveled to the Law Center where they conducted “business as usual” in the Law Center court room. This change in venue permitted law students a convenient opportunity to observe the legal process. The Judges of the 19th JDC make efforts to hold their dockets at both of the law centers located in Baton Rouge throughout the year.
