Bodenheimer, Barrett Lectures Announced
UC Davis School of Law proudly announced the speakers for two premiere lecture series, the Brigitte M. Bodenheimer Lecture on Family Law and the Edward L. Barrett, Jr. Lecture on Constitutional Law.
The Bodenheimer Lecture, established in 1981 in memory of Professor Brigitte M. Bodenheimer, will be delivered by California Supreme Court Justice Carlos R. Moreno on February 11, 2010.
Justice Moreno was sworn in as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of California on October 18, 2001, following his nomination by Governor Gray Davis. He has served as President of the Mexican American Bar Association and is the current Chair of the California Blue Ribbon Commission on Children in Foster Care. In March, Justice Moreno visited King Hall to deliver the keynote speech for the La Raza Law Students Association's César Chávez Week celebration.
The Barrett Lecture, established in 1986 to mark the retirement of King Hall's founding dean, Edward L. Barrett, Jr., and the Law School's twentieth anniversary, will be delivered by Judge Stephen R. Reinhardt of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on February 25, 2010.
One of the nation's most distinguished and respected jurists, Judge Reinhardt has been a member of the Ninth Circuit bench since 1980.
Further details of each event, including time and location, are being finalized and will be announced as they become available.
