Judge Attended

Legal College

Judge Rayner V. Snead of Washington, Va. was among the 140 judges from 40 states who attended an intensive four-week course in post-graduate legal education conducted by the National College of State Trial Judge? in Reno. Nev. Judge Snead served the Circuit Courts of Rappahannock, Fauquier and Loudoun. The course is an activity of the Section of Judicial Administration of the American Bar Association. The course attended by Judge Snead dealt with proceedings before trial, new developments in evidence, civil, family and criminal law and advanced concepts in court management and administration. The college, which brings judges together from throughout the nation, is dedicated to bringing constructive criticism of the courts to the attention of judges in an effort to improve the administration of justice through healthy growth and change. Dr. Andrew S. Watson, who holds a joint appointment as professor of psychiatry of the University of Michigan School of Medicine and professor of law at that school, was one of the featured speakers. He said that judges and lawyers, instead of relying only upon common sense and their knowledge of the law in dealing with criminal offenders should undertake the study of the behavorial sciences to a greater degree than they are presently doing. He recommended that training in the behavorial sciences should be given in law school and provided lawyers and judges on a continuing basis.
