There are a couple of Appellate Continuing Legal Education opportunities on the horizon that I will call out for you.

First, on May 31st and June 1st, the 22nd Annual UT Conference on State and Federal Appeals will be held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Austin, Texas.  The program for registration may be found here.

And if you can’t make that seminar, there’s another one June 21st and 22nd at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Cambridge, Massachusetts.  The Defense Research Institute will be holding its Appellate Advocacy Seminar on those dates in June.  The program for registration at this seminar may be found here.
