Systemic Inequality and the Courts: Part Two
November 16, 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:15 pm
BJI’s October 28 program will consider framework and theoretical issues of how judges are involved in the conversation on systemic inequality; join us Monday, November 16, for a follow up session considering the practical implications of that discussion for judges and the courts.
Berkeley Judicial Institute Executive Director Judge Jeremy Fogel will be joined by California Supreme Court Associate Justice Goodwin Liu and Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Holly Thomas.
Open to all, including law students, this program aims to provide better understanding of
· how courts operate and
· how key issues arise in court
The program will be of particular interest to those contemplating applying for law clerk positions.
CLE credit will be offered.
