As part of the six-hour \u201cYouth and Law\u201d project, which ran over three weeks, Class 8c\u2014taught by Steinm\u00fchlen teacher Dr. Claudia R\u00f6der\u2014attended a court hearing at the Marburg Regional Court. The goal was to supplement the theoretical knowledge they had learned about court proceedings with real-life experience. After all, the media often convey certain ideas about what goes on in court. But is that really how it is? <\/p>\n

The hearing concerned a juvenile criminal case involving assault. The group of students, whose field trip had been organized by Heike Schneider, a judge at the Regional Court, and Dr. Claudia R\u00f6der, was guided by Judge Thomas Rohner. <\/p>\n

The students at Steinm\u00fchle found the discussion about whether the offense in question constituted minor or serious bodily injury particularly interesting. The parties to the trial also debated whether the male defendant should be sentenced under juvenile or adult criminal law. The arguments for and against were discussed at length, as they have a significant impact on the sentence. <\/p>\n

Afterward, the very interested teenagers were given the opportunity to ask the judge and the prosecutor questions. At the end of the visit, Judge Heike Schneider showed the guests from Steinm\u00fchle the jury courtroom at the regional court and talked about her work. <\/p>\n
