Spring Break! Wooooooo!

But for nine University of Hawaii law students, the annual tradition of soaking up sun and imbibing adult beverages is being replaced with sifting through thousands of pages of internal rail documents. Sound like fun?

The team of students was put together by anti-rail law professor Randy Roth, according to the Hawaii Reporter. Roth is a plaintiff in the lawsuit against rail, and the team recently received the full 155,000-page administrative record.

He said in a recent interview on Hawaii Reporter Television that with the 9 law students and 5 prominent Hawaii lawyers volunteering their time to help in the case, the plaintiffs should be able to review all of the record in about a matter of days rather than months, and will save the plaintiffs a considerable sum of money in legal fees.
