Because many of these decisions are not covered by the news media, Court Watch is dedicated to informing the public about the court decisions that affect consumer rights the most. Each year Georgia Watch offers a fellowship to a single law student to research various cases that are tried in the Court of Appeals to determine which are most appropriate for the report.
