[blindlaw] Introduction

[Jordan Richardson]

Hello all,

My name is Jordan Richardson and I am currently a freshman at the
University of Minnesota, Twin Cities majoring in political science and
planning to minor in philosophy.

After my undergraduate degree I plan to attend law school specializing
in Constitutional law.  My plan is to practice law and then become a
judge.

I actually have some questions regarding blind judges:

What non-visual techniques would a blind judge use on the bench during
a trial? How would one deal with looking at evidence?  Would the
bailiff describe/read any pictures/texts, or would you simply have
each attorney be descriptive?

Thank you,
Jordan Richardson
