GOVERNMENT & GAVEL
MARISA J. DEMEO
Associate Judge, Superior Court
of the District of Columbia
"We are the third branch of government. The court
is necessary in the community because if there is a
conflict or a difficult situation, people come to the
court to get a fair outcome. Representation is important because how people in court are treated, how
they are listened to, and how the judge responds
to them impacts whether they feel that the process
was fair. From the research that's been done on
these issues, we know that more important than the
case's outcome is how the person felt when they
came to the court, and if they felt they were heard.
So, when there is diverse representation in terms of
gender and race and ethnicity and other factors, it
gives the sense that we are part of the community
that is coming into the court, that we understand
what is being told to us and experience what people
are going through, and hopefully we are making
better decisions as a result of that."

"More important
than the case's
outcome is how
the person felt
when they came
to the court, and
if they felt they
were heard."
