Product Description
MCLE is pleased to offer this program to an in-person audience in our Boston conference center in addition to the live and recorded webcasts. Masks are encouraged.
The premier yearly event for appellate practitioners, MCLE's 8th Annual Appellate Practice Conference 2022 features a concentrated focus on the appellate process. This year, the Conference provides a variety of perspectives to help attorneys become better appellate litigators. For a fresh perspective, the newest members of the state and federal appellate courts in Massachusetts discuss their backgrounds and how they are settling into their new roles. For a comparative perspective, Justices Kafker, Cypher, and Wendlandt reflect upon their experiences serving on both the Supreme Judicial Court (SJC) and the Massachusetts Appeals Court—as we observe an especially significant milestone in marking the 50th anniversary of the Appeals Court.For the practitioner's perspective, the current and original State Solicitors provide practical advice on brief writing, reviewing briefs written by others, and preparing for and delivering oral argument, among other topics. For a change in viewpoint, members of the SJC's Standing Committee on the Rules of Appellate Procedure discuss recent rule changes. The Conference also features behind-the-scenes insight from the former Chief Staff Counsel to the SJC on the evolution of the SJC's docket and from state and federal appellate court clerks on recent developments in court operations.
This outstanding Conference is essential for both new and experienced appellate litigators to strengthen their skills, hear from the judiciary, learn from experts, and network with colleagues. Take advantage of this valuable opportunity to become a more effective appellate lawyer.
