Law Study Group
LAW STUDY GROUP
Meets on the third Tuesday of every month, 4-5:30 pm ET / 1-2:30 pm PT
This study group is for attorneys and retired (or semi-retired) judges. Come together with fellow lawyers for exhilarating conversation that will help strengthen your memory into retirement.
For attorneys who miss the intense, intellectual stimulation of discussing issues of legal significance, this is a unique opportunity to participate in diverse conversation with attorneys from around the country.
The group is open to men and women. Potential topics include recent U. S. Supreme Court decisions, appellate cases, pending litigation of significance to the country, as well as non-constitutional issues, including legal-political cross-over issues. There’s no end to topics of contemporary and historic importance to discuss and debate. The group is led by Paul Fisher, a retired mediator/arbitrator/attorney and a member of the Conejo Valley/San Fernando Valley Chapter..
The $25 registration fee is a donation to the BNC Professorship in Engineering Science.
