Description

As litigants and attorneys are increasingly turning their focus away from the federal constitution, the role of state law, state constitutions, and state courts continues to grow in shaping the legal landscape. Consistent with this increased focus on state courts, the Federalist Society's Midwest Chapters Conference is proud to bring together judges from across the Midwest for a timely and insightful discussion on key recent developments in state law, and how their State judiciaries have been approaching novel issues, particularly in dynamic and sometimes politically charged environments.

Featuring:

• Hon. Matthew Byrne, Judge, Ohio Twelfth District Court of Appeals
• Hon. Maria Lazar, Judge, Wisconsin Second District Court of Appeals
• Hon. Michael Riordan, Judge, Michigan First District Court of Appeals
• Hon. Kenton Skarin, Judge, Illinois 18th Judicial Circuit
• Moderator: Hon. Andrew Fink, General Counsel, House Republican Caucus, Michigan House of Representatives

Speakers

Matthew R. Byrne
