The Student Court appointed a new chief justice and updated its bylaws to align with the amended Student Association constitution during its meeting Thursday.
The court appointed second-year law student Yun-Da Tsai as chief justice and swore in first-year law students Zamin Raza and Ian Lam as associate justices. Tsai said he hopes to include a wider range of students in court proceedings through updated bylaws that expand the court’s jurisdiction for students outside the SA, rename judges as justices and increase the number of justices from five to seven.
Tsai said he hopes to educate more students about the Student Court, presenting how it can help settle disputes between student organizations and within the SA. He said the court demonstrates how professional courts operate, settling small disputes and clarifying constitutional language.
