On March 19 over 100 area high school students gathered at the DC Superior Court for the 2016 Youth Law Fair, a free educational event that focused on the District of Columbia's marijuana laws.

Hosted by the DC Superior Court and the DC Bar Litigation Section, the fair featured presentations, mock trials, and speak-out sessions reflecting on the theme "Blunt Talk: Clearing the Haze Around DC's Marijuana Laws." Courtroom and holding cell tours led by Superior Court judges also offered attendees an inside look at the judicial system.

The event began with an open house with vendors such as the Metropolitan Police Department, Drug Free Youth DC, and the US Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia presenting resources and discussing drug prevention, civil rights laws, and other topics with guests.
