The purpose of the SG Judicial Review Board is to monitor attendance and all responsibilities or job descriptions as outlined in the SG Constitution.  Other incidents that may come to the attention of the SG Judicial Review Board may be, but are not limited to, missed meetings or office hours, failure to attend a required function, failure to turn in weekly reports or attendance sheets to the SG Judicial Review Board. If any member needs to go before J-Board, they have the right to due process.

All members of the SG Judicial Review Board shall remain free of bias, prejudice, and corruption.  They are expected to keep all meetings and sanctions confidential and must be present at meetings on time, acting in a professional manner.

Each student who appears before the SG Judicial Review Board for an official hearing will have the opportunity to present his/her case to the SG Judicial Review Board.  If the sanctioned individual is unable to attend the hearing, he/she has the right to submit a written defense regarding the infractions to the SG Judicial Review Board Chairperson prior to the hearing date.  In addition, he/she has the option to choose, at most, 2 witnesses to appear before the SG Judicial Review Board to speak on his/her behalf. SG Judicial Review Board will further discuss the hearing as a group and begin to discuss an action plan which sanctioned individuals will be required to fulfill.

In order to provide a fair judgment system, the SG Judicial Review Board has provided a list of recommended sanctions.  The nature of the sanction will be imposed at the discretion of the SG Judicial Review Board based upon the severity of each case. 

Meet the J-Board!

I work closely with the Student Government Executive Board, the advisors for all the divisions of Student Government, and our J-Board Advisor Mike Moylan.
