News Notice of Vacancy on Supreme Judicial Court's Standing Advisory Committee on the Rules of Civil Procedure

The Justices of the Supreme Judicial Court invite nominations and applications for appointment to the Court's Standing Advisory Committee on the Rules of Civil Procedure. This Committee advises the Court on all issues and proposals relating to the Massachusetts Rules of Civil Procedure, and reports to the Supreme Judicial Court Rules Committee.

There is one position available. For this position, the Justices seek applications from experienced civil trial practitioners with diverse backgrounds. The successful applicant will be appointed to a three-year term with the possibility of reappointment to a second, consecutive term.

Committee members are expected to attend all meetings, the scheduling of which varies with the Committee's work. Members also may be assigned to subcommittees that meet more frequently than does the full Committee. Outside of meetings, members may conduct research and draft materials in support of the Committee's work.

Interested applicants should send a cover letter and one-page resume to Anna Rachel Dray-Siegel at anna.dray-siegel@jud.state.ma.us by January 25, 2021. If you have questions about the application process or the position, please contact Anna.
