Superior Court appointed

The Student Government Association (SGA) finally named justices to the 2007-08 UMKC Superior Court during its Nov. 14 meeting.

All seven appointees are current students in the School of Law. Nathaniel McGraw Jones, third-year, will serve as chief justice. The associate justices are Jonathan Soper, third-year; Brad Boffeli, Michael Miller, Torie M. Orton and Scott A. Woods, second-year; and Audrey McCormick, first-year.

According to Article VII, Section D of the SGA Constitution, "All justices shall be appointed and approved by the Student Senate at the first regularly scheduled meeting in April. All Justices shall serve a one-year term beginning on May 1 and concluding on April 30 of the following year."

As the judicial arm of SGA, the Superior Court handles issues such as election disputes and SGA and council constitutional questions.
