Mar 30/Minneapolis, MN - The Politics of Childhood: Law and Child Protection in Modern America
Concerns about the well-being of American children prompted protection measures as early as 1874 with the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children and have continued with the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act of 1974, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in 1984, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1990, Meagan’s Laws in the 1990s, and the Children’s Internet Protection Act of 2000. !ese protections reveal the changing place of children in American social policy and law and are an expression of Americans’ most fundamental hopes and fears about their children and the republic itself.

Mar 15/Cleveland, OH: Tribulations of Trials: Challenges of High Level International Criminal Trials
OK you have to pay for the lunch that precedes the lecture.
In her lecture, Ms. Hollis will discuss many of the challenges facing the practitioner engaged in complex litigation involving high level accused. These challenges include achieving a workable reconciliation of diverse regional, national and international goals of such litigation, carrying out complex investigations in diverse locations and among diverse cultures, identifying potential suspects, determining how to identify, approach, select and protect “insider” witnesses, vulnerable victims and survivors, doctors, local authorities, personnel from international agencies or others who have “overview” evidence, how to deal with traumatized victims and survivors who may speak a different language and may be called upon to travel outside their local communities, even outside their countries, to testify, preparing indictments which are reflective of the crimes committed but also capable of timely judicial resolution. The challenges in such cases also include how to maximize efficiency while ensuring the evidence meets the required burden of proof, the key to which is meeting the challenge of collecting, organizing, maintaining, retrieving and analyzing large amounts of information both for use in trial and to ensure compliance with very broad disclosure rules.
The legal challenges include developing or refining positions on issues of procedural law and of substantive law for crimes such as conscripting or enlisting children under the age of 15 years or using them to participate actively in hostilities and for forms of liability such as joint criminal enterprise or common plan, design or purpose. The lecture will also consider the challenges involved in proving the “linkage” between high level accused and the crimes charged where the accused are often not charged with direct commission of offences and may not have been in the country where the crimes were being committed.

Olmstead at Work: Legal Frameworks for Integrating Individuals with Mental Disabilities into the Workplace
Co-sponsored by:
The Law-Medicine Center
Speaker Information:
Samuel R. Bagenstos
Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General
Civil Rights Division
United States Department of Justice
Samuel Bagenstos is on leave from his position as Professor of Law at the University of Michigan Law School to serve as Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General in the Civil Rights Division of the United States Department of Justice. As Principal Deputy AAG, Bagenstos assists in the overall management of the Division and directly supervises the Division’s Appellate and Disability Rights Sections, as well as the disability rights work of the Division’s Special Litigation Section. He served from 1994 to 1997 as a career attorney in the Appellate Section of the Division, where he worked on the full range of civil rights issues.
Since 1999, Bagenstos has been a law professor; he has taught at Harvard, Washington University in St. Louis, UCLA, and the University of Michigan. Since becoming a professor, he has taught constitutional law and civil rights law, written extensively on disability rights and civil rights more generally, and continued to litigate civil rights cases (usually pro bono). During that time, Bagenstos played a key role in defending the constitutionality of the Americans with Disabilities Act and its abrogation of state sovereign immunity. He represented individuals with disabilities in a number of cases in which defendants attacked the statute as unconstitutional, including Tennessee v. Lane and United States v. Georgia -- two cases in which the Supreme Court upheld the statute against such attacks. He has argued civil rights cases in the Supreme Court and most of the federal courts of appeals, and as an academic he testified before Congress in favor of the so-called Lily Ledbetter Bill and the ADA Amendments Act.
Bagenstos graduated with Highest Honors and Highest Distinction in 1990 from the University of North Carolina; he received his law degree magna cum laude in 1993 from the Harvard Law School (where he was first in his class). He clerked for Judge Stephen Reinhardt on the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and for Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg of the Supreme Court of the United States.
