Pro Bono Winter Break 2013 (Cherokee, N.C.) Blog Day Three

Day Three: You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.

Hey Guys, Today’s blog entry is coming to you from the road. We are about two hours in and passing by Rutherfordton, NC. It has been a great day so far. This morning we packed up our bags and headed over to the courthouse where we met Cory Blankenship, the Treasurer for the Eastern Band of Cherokee.

Pro Bono Winter Break 2013 (Cherokee, N.C.) Blog Day Two

Day 2 Final Score:

UNC Law Students and Sylva Legal Aid – 26

Legal Problems – 0

I would argue that today was as good a day as could be had. We arrived at the courthouse in Cherokee at 8:30, set up our interview rooms and by 5:00 had served 26 different clients in some way, shape, or form.
