The Middle School Jury Project
Developed to educate area youth on the evolution and importance of juries in our legal process. The Middle School Jury Project also provides an early primer to the High School Mock Trial Competitions, sponsored annually by the MBA’s Young Lawyer Section. For the Middle School Jury Project, lawyers affiliated with the Montgomery Bar Association are paired with area teachers to prepare and deliver a lesson on the jury process and the importance of jury service. That same lawyer acts as guide and mentor to the class when they make their trip to the Montgomery County Courthouse to view a live mock trial case – often presented by their respective area high school. Following their observation of the mock trial, students are engaged in the jury process by deliberating back in the classroom and reaching their own verdict. This process is guided by the teacher and a Curriculum Guide prepared annually by the Middle School Jury Project Committee.
The Middle School Jury Project Curriculum Guide, updated annually by the Middle School Jury Project Committee, is a free teaching aid published by the MBA to coincide with deliberations in the statewide High School Mock Trial Competitions.

The Attorney/Realtor Protocol
In 1991, in an effort to further the joint interests and concerns of Realtors® and Attorneys in Montgomery County, various Montgomery County associations of Realtors® and the Montgomery Bar Association established a committee now comprised of ten Realtors® and ten attorneys to explore and discuss numerous matters of mutual interest. The Committee believes it is beneficial for Realtors® and attorneys to identify their respective functions, duties, and expertise in real estate transactions in order that these transactions may be handled more smoothly, with less conflict, and with greater mutual respect.
The Montgomery Bar Association, as well as the Montgomery County, Delaware Valley and Tri-State Associations of Realtors® have wholeheartedly endorsed and approved the following Protocol. The Committee believes that this Protocol will serve as a guide for relationships between legal and real estate professionals, thereby improving their work with mutual clients.
