A total of about 110 students from Konawaena, Lahainaluna, and Waipahu high schools will hear oral arguments in the case In re Hawaiian Electric (Kahuku). This is the first time Courts in the Community have been held since November 2019, due to the pandemic.

Our Courts in the Community program is designed to educate students about the Judiciary’s role in government and its function in resolving disputes in a democratic society. Students prepare by studying curriculum developed by the Kamehameha V Judiciary History Center and the Students for Public Outreach and Civic Education from the William S. Richardson School of Law. Attorneys from the Hawaii State Bar Association volunteer their time and facilitate a moot court activity for the students.
