Heavy Rain Doesn’t Stop Vermonters from Lining I-89

to Pay Tribute to Corpsman Cory Green

By CompassVermont.com

Tropical Storm Fred was no match for Vermonters on

Thursday, August 19, intent on showing their appreciation

for American soldiers and one in particular, Navy Corpsman

Cory Green.

A decorated Afghan War veteran, Green died on August 5

after a long post-war battle with PTSD.

Crowds assembled in view of southbound Interstate 89 as

Green’s body was transported from Colchester to Randolph,

home of the Vermont Veterans Memorial Cemetary.

They gathered on overpasses, exits, and rest area access

roads, waving American flags of all sizes as pouring rain

kicked up spray on the highway below.

Nearly every support location was represented by substantial

numbers of first-responders, some with fire trucks or

emergency vehicles and dressed in their telltale high visibility

uniforms.

Dozens of motorcycle riders rode solemnly through the

rain, preceded by a Vermont State Police escort, and followed

by a bus full of Green’s comrades from the military

and countless cars making their way down the highway to

Green’s final resting place.

Vermont Supreme Court

Authorizes the Use of Remote

Civil Jury Trials to Enhance

Access to Justice for Vermonters

The Supreme Court adopted an order establishing a oneyear

pilot project for remote civil jury trials. The move comes

after in-depth work by a committee on how to utilize remote

hearing technology to increase access to justice and address

civil case backlogs—things especially important to the judiciary

as it continues to navigate challenges associated with

COVID-19.

“The judiciary has been using remote technology to facilitate

operations in order to ensure access to justice and continuity

of operations and to promote the health and safety

of judges, staff, and court users during the pandemic,” said

Patricia Gabel, State Court Administrator. “Considering the

ways available technology can assist us in managing our civil

docket is an important step in our ongoing effort to leverage

technology and adapt our operations to changing conditions,”

she said.

Earlier this year the Supreme Court authorized the formation

of a committee to consider whether remote civil jury trials

are a workable option for the judiciary. The committee, which

was chaired by Associate Justice Karen R. Carroll and included

representatives from the judiciary and the Vermont Bar,

studied the issue and produced a detailed protocol for how

remote civil jury trials should be handled in the civil docket.

“We have learned much over the last 17 months and the Supreme

Court wanted to ensure that the judiciary is making the

best use of available technology to support operations—both

now and in the future,” said Associate Justice Karen R. Carroll,

the committee’s chair. “I am very grateful to committee

members for their hard work and contributions to this important

guidance for judges, staff, attorneys, and the public,” she

added.

The Court’s administrative order and the Remote Civil Jury

Trial Protocols are available on the judiciary website.

Compass Vermont first learned of the initiative to gain visible

support for Green’s journey through a social media post

by Josh Langelier, a lifelong friend of Green and his family,

and reported on his efforts.

Reaction to the article and social media activity was

robust, as folks around the region made plans to gather and

meet to fulfill Langelier’s and the family’s wishes.

Despite the weather, Vermonters came through.

While Cory Green was laid to rest, the effort to help all

Americans understand the challenges faced by soldiers

returning from combat, as well as the very real and tragic

impact of PTSD, continues. Green’s family has asked the

memorials in Green’s name be made to the Josh Pallotta

Fund at Josh’s House, 162 Hegeman Drive, Colchester,

Vermont 05446, an organization dedicated to supporting

soldiers returning from combat.

Compass Vermont will continue to follow this story. CompassVermont.Com

is an independent publication founded by

a native Vermonter, providing non-editorial news and stories

presented in concert with the culture, mindset, and values of

the Green Mountain State.
