Conference Announcement: Civil Procedure Workshop at the University of Washington

We are excited to announce the second annual Civil Procedure Workshop, to be co-hosted by The University of Washington School of Law, Seattle University School of Law, and the University of Arizona James E. Rogers College of Law.  The Workshop will be held at the University of Washington in Seattle on July 14-15, 2016.

The Workshop gives both emerging and established civil procedure scholars an opportunity to gather with colleagues and present their work to an expert audience.  Scholars will present their papers in small panel sessions.  A senior scholar will moderate each panel and lead the commentary.  In addition to paper presentations, we intend to engage members of the judiciary and federal civil rulemaking bodies in discussions about current developments in procedure.  Our goal is for the Workshop to strengthen the study of procedure as an academic discipline, and to deepen ties among the academy, rulemakers, and the judiciary.

Confirmed participants for 2016 include Robert Bone, Sergio Campos, David Engstrom, Samuel Issacharoff, Alexandra Lahav, Alexander Reinert, the Hon. Lee Rosenthal, Joanna Schwartz, and Adam Steinman.
