A group of retired judges has been traveling through several states to defend judicial independence. They recently stopped in a Michigan suburb after visiting areas in Ohio and Pennsylvania.

The judges are marking the nation's 250th anniversary with a warning that the rule of law is in danger. They have been delivering this message in various locations, including courthouses and public squares.

Further details about the judges' tour and their concerns about the court system are available from the source, including comments from some of the judges involved.
