Through John Marshall’s Externships Program, students are going to help pro se plaintiffs in contested child support cases through a program started by a DeKalb County judge and family lawyer.The students will assist divorcing parents with a lengthy worksheet reporting income and expenses.
DeKalb Superior Court Judge Mark Anthony Scott and Rebecca Crumrine, a partner at family law firm Hedgepeth, Heredia, Crumrine & Morrison, have organized an externship with AJMLS, where Crumrine is an adjunct professor, training third-year law students to help pro se litigants in Scott’s courtroom fill out the worksheet.
