October 27: One Week Out: The Legal Landscape of Election 2020

The 2020 election cycle has truly been unlike any other in modern history. Not only has the COVID-19 pandemic dramatically changed the way many Americans will cast their ballot, but longstanding norms that have governed political actors' conduct during elections have already been undermined. With the narrative and legal landscape surrounding the election seeming to shift by the hour, many questions have arisen as we enter the final week of voting. What should we expect on Election Night and the weeks to follow? How could ongoing litigation impact the administration of the election in these final days and could it impact the outcomes? What have we seen from the Supreme Court recently on election-related matters and how might that change with a new Justice on the bench?

October 21: The Rule of Five: Making Climate History at the Supreme Court

Richard Lazarus will be lecturing about his book, “The Rule of Five”, which is the gripping inside story of how an unlikely team of lawyers and climate activists overcame conservative opposition—and their own divisions—to win the most important environmental case ever brought before the Supreme Court. 

When the Supreme Court announced its ruling in Massachusetts v. EPA the decision was immediately hailed as a landmark. But this was the farthest thing from anyone’s mind when Joe Mendelson, an idealistic lawyer working on a shoestring budget for an environmental organization no one had heard of, decided to press his quixotic case.
In October 1999, Mendelson hand-delivered a petition to the Environmental Protection Agency asking it to restrict greenhouse gas emissions from new cars. The Clean Air Act had authorized the EPA to regulate “any air pollutant” that could reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health. But could something as ordinary as carbon dioxide really be considered a harmful pollutant? And even if the EPA had the authority to regulate emissions, could it be forced to do so? 

Environmentalists urged Mendelson to stand down. Thinking of his young daughters and determined to fight climate change, he pressed on—and brought Sierra Club, Greenpeace, NRDC, and twelve state attorneys general led by Massachusetts to his side.

This unlikely group—the Carbon Dioxide Warriors—challenged the Bush administration and took the EPA to court. The Rule of Five tells the story of their unexpected triumph. We see how accidents, infighting, luck, superb lawyering, and the arcane practices of the Supreme Court collided to produce a legal miracle. An acclaimed advocate, Richard Lazarus reveals the personal dynamics of the justices and dramatizes the workings of the Court. The final ruling, by a razor-thin 5–4 margin, made possible important environmental safeguards which the Trump administration now seeks to unravel.

October 15: A State-Provincial Approach to Harmful Algal Blooms in the Great Lakes Basin: Possibilities and Pitfalls

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are negatively impacting the Great Lakes. The Lakes should be enjoyed for recreation and serve as the home to bountiful freshwater species, however, this precious resource is becoming increasingly toxic. Much has been written and studied about the causes of HABs, and numerous solutions have been proposed. However, there are many cooks in the remedial kitchen and the progress toward remediation has been stalled and uncoordinated.
This symposium will present such a framework by two leading scientific and legal experts on HABs. Professor Irena Creed, Associate Vice President for Research at the University of Saskatchewan and Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, and Kathryn Friedman, Global Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars Canada Institute and Research Professor at the University at Buffalo, will propose a state-provincial framework for tackling HABs. This proposal will then be reviewed by a panel of federal, state and provincial environmental regulators and a panel of industry and non-government organization stakeholders. The timely questions to be answered include: Whether is a state-provincial framework necessary? Is it possible? What are the challenges? How can an enforceable and successful framework be created?

October 15: Expand Your Practice By Utilizing Paralegals

Learn how you can utilize paralegals and other non-lawyer staff most effectively to expand your law practice while staying in compliance with your duties to supervise them. This will be an interactive Zoom meeting, so please be prepared for introductions and to talk about your big wins in our breakout rooms at the start of the meeting.

The Binger Center’s Annual Immigration Law Forum brings together lawyers, students, advocates and community members to learn from each other and develop tools to continue the struggle to protect human rights, basic dignity and the rule of law. This year’s forum will engage lawyers and advocates in critical conversations about race. Sessions will address historical lineages and systemic racism in the immigration system with a focus on anti-Blackness, the identity questions that surround how the immigrant rights movement is defined and intersects with other movements, and how community partners across sectors can come together to support noncitizens and advance racial justice. This online virtual conference will be interactive and action-focused, with sessions throughout the day followed by breakout discussions.

October 12: Planting the Seeds of Violence: How U.S. Involvement in El Salvador Led to Today’s Migration Crisis

Join us for a discussion of how U.S. involvement in El Salvador in the 1980s planted the seeds for today’s crisis of migration from Central America. The panelists will outline how the United States assisted the Salvadoran government in committing war crimes by providing weapons and training soldiers, which ultimately led to the murders of over 70,000 innocent civilians. The Salvadoran Civil War left the country deeply divided and ridden with economic troubles. When the U.S. forced Salvadorans who had sought refuge in Los Angeles to return home, they brought back a gang system that grew in response to the harsh post-war inequalities. Today’s migrants are fleeing the continuing violence and financial devastation.

October 12: The Challenges of Women in Law, Construction, & Insurance

The world we live in has come a long way for equal treatment of women in the workplace. It's no longer unheard of for women like our panelists to excel in law, construction, and insurance. However, female professionals in these industries are still a minority voice, and while the tides of progress have shaped a better and more inclusive workplace, these women often face challenges their male peers do not. 

 Any workplace that is primarily male would benefit from our critical discussion about the ethics of gender inequality, but it is especially relevant to those who work in insurance, law, or construction as our panelists will draw from their experience in these industries. Law and insurance professionals especially have a duty to examine their behavior for potential bias, as discrimination in these fields can lead to potentially unethical situations, both with their peers and the sensitive cases they handle.

October 29: Aftermarket, Not Afterthought: Patent Strategies for Protecting Aftermarket Parts

Aftermarket parts for a product such as a vehicle or large machine can provide an important revenue stream for the product manufacturer. Aftermarket parts sales are often highly profitable for the manufacturer, which invites will-fitters to sell their own aftermarket parts. These competing parts may not only negatively impact the manufacturer’s sales, but may cause safety and warranty concerns due to potential quality issues.
This webinar will provide approaches for cost-effectively protecting aftermarket parts, including these tactics: 

• Preparing, filing, and prosecuting patent applications to develop a strong portfolio focused on aftermarket parts
• Integrating business input into the patent life cycle
• Detecting and stopping will-fitters
• Creating non-patent challenges for will-fitters.
