Rogers Mantese &
Associates co-sponsored 17 students in 5th Grade at
Cranbrook's Brookside Lower School, who were awarded
first place in the Statewide Law Day Competition for
2012. The State Bar of Michigan launched this statewide
contest for the first time to highlight the theme
“Michigan: No Courts, No Justice, No Freedom,” utilizing
SBM's Michigan Legal Milestones. The group chose to
reenact the defamation trial of Theodore Roosevelt v.
George Newett. This 1913 case is a milestone case in
Michigan in which then-former President Theodore
Roosevelt sued George A. Newett, publisher of the Iron
Ore, an Ishpeming newspaper, for libel. The Cranbrook
students won the top prize of $1,000, which they donated
to the Hamtramck Public Schools.
