On October 29 in Cincinnati, the Federal Bar Association is hosting the Sixth Circuit Practice Institute. The Institute is planned in coordination with the Sixth Circuit and features a terrific line-up. Chief Judge Jeffrey Sutton, eight other Sixth Circuit judges, and several District Court judges will speak. This special single-day CLE will provide a unique opportunity to discuss practice issues in the Sixth Circuit and hear directly from the bench during a year when the judicial conference is judges-only.
A detailed brochure and agenda is here.
You can register here.
The program also includes a luncheon and cocktail reception. The keynote luncheon address will be given by Commissioner Kalpana Kotagal, who serves on the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
Panel topics include:
- How a Judge Decides a Case
- Artificial Intelligence in Advocacy and Judging
- Eyes on the Supreme Court
- Criminal Justice Act Training & Introduction to the Clerk’s Office
- Dialogue between Circuit and District Judges
- Judges’ Views on Effective Advocacy
- Behind the Scenes at the Staff Attorney’s Office
This is a fantastic way to get to know the Circuit! We’re looking forward to it.
