We’re pleased to announce the SCOTUSblog Summit: On the Merits, co-hosted by SCOTUSblog and the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins University, a convening that carries forward the university’s commitment to fostering far-reaching dialogue around pressing policy issues. In that spirit, this daylong event will bring together legal experts and public leaders to explore how the courts are shaping governance, policymaking, and democratic life.
Justice Amy Coney Barrett, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, will headline the event with a keynote conversation and signing of her new book, Listening to the Law: Reflections on the Court and Constitution. Other sessions will include discussions with Fortune 50 general counsels, regulatory leaders, and top law professors.
We’ve reserved a limited number of seats for SCOTUSblog readers. You can register your interest in attending this event here. Attendees will be selected and notified based on availability.
