Make
a difference! Apply to serve on a 2013-14 MSBA Committee
The MSBA committees develop, implement, and oversee
many Association goals and programs. Committees are composed of MSBA
members, appointed by the MSBA president, who volunteer their leadership,
expertise, and service to benefit the Association, the legal profession
and the community in the following areas:
The MSBA has three types of committees: management, permanent,
ad hoc, and Assembly.
Management committees oversee MSBA programs and are generally limited
in size. Members of the Assembly often
serve on management committees.
Permanent committees work on general projects to enhance
the profession and administration of justice. Permanent committees are
generally limited to 20 members.
Ad hoc committees and task forces are organized to fulfill a specific
need or purpose and are disbanded as soon as the purpose or need has
been fulfilled.
Assembly Committees are limited to Assembly members; they report to the MSBA Assembly

fill out the online request form or they can send a brief letter outlining their
interest in a given committee and their professional background to the Tram Nguyen,
