Product Description
Available in-person at MCLE's Conference Center and via live webcast!
The premier yearly event for appellate practitioners, MCLE’s 9th Annual Appellate Practice Conference 2023, features a full-day, concentrated focus on the appellate process covering many of the exciting changes happening in appellate practice, including new judges, the use of artificial intelligence in briefing, the ever-increasing importance of state constitutional claims, and more!
Hear from the newest appellate judges in Massachusetts about their backgrounds and advice for practitioners appearing before them. And hear from state and federal appellate court clerks about recent developments in each court’s procedures and some of their practical tips for litigants.
Justices Kafker and Neyman, along with First Assistant Attorney General Patrick Moore, provide practical advice on the importance of including state constitutional arguments, where available, in briefs. Advocates and judges discuss emerging artificial intelligence tools, like ChatGPT, and the potential benefits and perils of using them for brief writing.
And to help practitioners stay up to date on the state and federal appellate rules, members of the SJC’s Standing Committee on the Rules of Appellate Procedure discuss recent rule changes.
This Conference is essential for new and experienced appellate litigators to strengthen their skills, hear from the judiciary, learn from experts, and network with colleagues. Take advantage of this opportunity to become a more effective appellate lawyer.
