Ventura County, CA – The public is invited to attend a forum sponsored by the Gold Coast Chapter of The Federalist Society entitled, “Oyez! Oyez! Oyez! – Significant U.S. Supreme Court Trends and Decisions”.

The forum will be held Tuesday, February 8, 2011, from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. at California Lutheran University’s Oxnard Campus, located at 2201 Outlet Center Drive, Oxnard, California 93036. There is no cost to attend the forum.

The forum will feature a panel discussion with three prominent scholars: Joerg Knipprath, Professor at Southwestern University School of Law; Barry McDonald, Professor at Pepperdine University School of Law; and Adam Winkler, Professor at UCLA School of Law.

The panel of constitutional law scholars, including experienced U.S. Supreme Court advocates, will review decisions of the past year and anticipate decisions from the Court during the current term as well as cases that may reach the Court as a result of circuit-splits or otherwise including discussion concerning the health care mandate, terrorist trials, same-sex marriage, Second Amendment, Dodd-Frank Bill, and more.

The Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies is a non-partisan organization, founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be. The Society seeks both to promote an awareness of these principles and to further their application through its activities.
