Due Process is NJN’s award-winning weekly series on law and justice issues. Launched in 1996, Due Process is in its 15th season with the same cutting edge coverage that has marked its more than decade-long tenure.

Criminal law, civil law, consumer law, civil liberties law. In fifteen years on NJN, Due Process has done them all.

Recently we’ve covered stories like the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, the explosive Pew Study on Prisons, the nature of corruption in New Jersey, and the strides made towards diversity in the legal profession.

The bottom line for every Due Process episode is: Have we aired all sides of an issue? Have we achieved both balance and diversity?

Managing Editor Sandra King and Host Raymond Brown

In fact, it is just that commitment to good journalism and basic fairness that has won Due Process scores of awards and honors, including 18 New York and Mid-Atlantic Emmys, and more than 75 Emmy nominations.

The Mid-Atlantic Chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences has recently honored us once again - this time with three new Emmy awards!
