The Georgia Supreme Court will hold oral arguments at Mercer University School of Law in Macon Friday in the Bell-Jones Courtroom, beginning at 10 a.m.

The event is one of a few sessions each year when the high court travels outside Atlanta to hear cases for the stated purpose of making the court’s business and the judicial process more accessible to the public. The justices will hear appeals from a medical malpractice trial and a murder conviction.
