From Dean Dan - November 2, 2017
The law school is fortunate to have strong relationships with the Nevada and federal judiciary, and this has been an exceptional month for these important partnerships.
On Oct. 3 we welcomed the first ever en banc oral arguments held by the Nevada Supreme Court at the law school. On Oct. 11 we welcomed US District Court Judge Andrew Gordon who held motion hearings. Next, on Nov. 13 it is our great honor to host the The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. A three-judge panel will hear oral argument in three cases which can be seen here.
We are grateful to the Ninth Circuit Court, and we are not done yet. In February we will host the Nevada Court of Appeals, which has held argument at the law school every year since the Court's creation in 2015.
This remarkable lineup provides an exceptional opportunity for our students to see these courts in action and to learn from the lawyers and judges in cases, not only drawn from their books, but taking place before them at their law school.
