Biography
Prof. Maveal taught Civil Procedure, Evidence, and Remedies (along with other courses) for thirty years. From 1990-2018, he served as Administrator and ex officio Master of the Bench in the Law School’s American Inn of Court Program. He also worked in several administrative roles during his career, including serving as Associate Dean for Academic Affairs from 2004-2010. In 2018, he received the James T. Barnes, Sr. Memorial Faculty Scholar Award and was also conferred the title of Professor Emeritus.
Since his retirement from teaching, Prof. Maveal has been researching the history of Michigan's American Rule on attorney fees. His just-completed (March 2024) article traces the origin and application of three novel statutes from the Territorial Era and first years of statehood which taxed attorney fees in all civil cases. None of these acts have ever been cited in Michigan decisions or our legal literature. The paper will be published in the Michigan Historical Review in 2025.
