Marcy,

 

This conflicts with a 32 I have but the dates were soft…I also don’t know if they still want me to do this.  I am sending for calendar purposes.

Eric,

 

Below is the list of confirmed and potential speakers.  Depending on the rest of our confirmations we will determine a panel structure.  Also we have been approved to reimburse you up to $400 for flight accomidations.  This covers a roundtrip ticket from Baltimore to Albany (apparently the only direct flight).

 

1. David Crane from Syracuse Law School has confirmed that he will participate in the symposium. Crane was the first U.S. Chief Prosecutor at an international war crime tribunal since Justice Jackson himself. Here is his bio: http://www.law.syr.edu/faculty/facultymember.aspx?fac=152

2. Prof. James Gathii at ALS has confirmed that he will participate too. He would like to speak on international commercial disputes.

 

3. Prof. David Moore, Touro Law School. He is speaking on the constitutionality (or not) of applying International Law in U.S. courts.


4. Eli Rosenbaum at the DoJ has agreed in principle to speak at the symposium but has to confirm availability for the date. Here is NY Times article on him:

Other Possible Speakers

1. Hon. Louise Arbour. She is the former Justice of the Canadian Supreme Court and is currently the President of the International Crisis Group. She was also the UN High Commissioner on Human Rights and the Chief Prosecutor at the Yugoslavia and Rwanda tribunals. She would speak on international criminal law. Here is her bio:

We are actually doing our budget meeting right now and I expect the school to fund transportation.

 

Matt also offered to do it, depending on how much we can get.  Your hotel stay will definately be taken care of by us.  I will let you know by Monday exactly how much we can reimburse for your travel.

On behalf of the Justice Robert H. Jackson Lecture Series Committee and the Student Bar Association of Albany Law School please accept this invitation to speak at Albany Law School’s annual Justice Robert H. Jackson Lecture Series.

 

Albany Law School’s Justice Robert H. Jackson Lecture Series is a longstanding tradition of educationally enriching lectures, presentations, and panel discussions put on for the Albany Law School community and Capital Region as a whole.  The series is intended to honor the legacy of our most notable alumnus, Justice Robert H. Jackson.  This year, to honor Justice Jackson’s legacy, we are focusing on the role of international law and American jurisprudence.  Specifically, the question we feel lurking in the background of this topic is whether international law has any relevance in American Jurisprudence.  Considering your extensive work under the umbrella of this topic, we believe you would be a perfect addition to our panel of speakers.  We hope to arrange our speakers by subtopic, so we are willing to accommodate your particular interests.

We hope you will be able to find the time to address the legal community here in Albany, New York.  With the support of the Albany Law School faculty, the Albany Law School administration and the diverse legal community here in Albany, the Justice Jackson Lecture Series has been a continued success at our law school year after year. 

 

We recognize that you must be inundated with these types of requests and your schedule is demanding.  We have set the date of the lecture series for Wednesday, April 7, 2010.  If you are interested in attending or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
