You can register now to attend the 2023 Corbin Appellate Symposium taking place at the UA Little Rock William H. Bowen School of Law on March 30-31, 2023: You can register via this link to attend the 2023 installment of Arkansas’ premier appellate CLE event. You can also access online a list of the speakers and the symposium’s schedule.

This marks the post-Covid return of the Corbin Symposium, and I am honored to once again be among the speakers at this event, just as I was (along with Eighth Circuit Chief Judge Lavenski R. Smith, who is also making a return appearance) at the last pre-Covid Corbin Symposium in 2019. I look forward to seeing in person those readers of this blog who are able to attend.
