SUMMARY:Monthly CAFL Race Equity Drop-In
DESCRIPTION:April’s Race Equity Drop-In session will continue the discussion started at our March 20th training\, Using Data in Litigating Race Part I: How to Find\, Request\, and Use Race Data to Advance Your Client’s Position. Join us on April 3rd\, from 1-2PM as we lend more time to review and process what we have learned from lecturers Emma Knight\, Data Coordinator and Paralegal with the Trial Panel Support Unit\, and Cris and Debbie Freitas\, partners at Freitas & Freitas\, LLP\, Lowell. We hope you come with any questions you may still have and feel free to share your experiences with how you may have used data in racial litigation. \nPlease consider these questions we will use to guide the conversation. \n\nWhat questions do you still have about how to find data resources?\nWhat ways have you already used data in litigating racial bias in court?\nWhat legal issues have already been challenged using race data?\nHow would you go about this in the future?\n\nIf you have a question about using data to litigate racial issues in one of your cases\, you can send it to us in advance (anonymously if you prefer) and we can brainstorm together at the drop-in. You can send us a short case description\, along with any other questions in advance to cafltraining@publiccounsel.net. \nIf you are unable to attend the March 20th training\, no worries! Everyone is welcome to attend and join what promises to be a very enriching conversation. Register Here. Approved for 1 CAFL CLE.

SUMMARY:Federal Legislative History
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Social Law Library\, John Adams Courthouse\, 4th Floor\, Boston\, MA 02108\nMonday\, December 4\, 2023\, 4:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m. ET \nPanel:\nKaren Breda\, Legal Information Librarian and Lecturer of Law\, Boston College Law School\nAlex G. Philipson\, Esq. –Legal Counsel\, Massachusetts Superior Court\nBrian J. Harkins\, Esq. – Senior Reference Attorney\, Social Law Library \nOnline Only \nLegislative history is a critically important advocacy tool in Federal Court when statutory language is ambiguous and begs for clarification. Federal judges invite and apply the use of legislative history to avoid incongruous results\, illuminate drafting errors\, determine specialized meanings\, or choose reasonable interpretations of politically controversial statutes.   \nIn these and other instances\, Congress’s intent must be inferred from the statute’s legislative history\, which successful advocates must stitch together from a variety of sources including: \n\nThe text of the bill and proposed amendments that were accepted or rejected\nTranscripts of hearings conducted by Congressional committees responsible for the bill\nCommittee reports written about the bill\nCommittee prints\nCompiled legislative history\nTranscripts of House and Senate floor debates related to the bill\n\nAlex Philipson\, who has taught classes in appellate writing at New England Law Boston and Northeastern University Law School\, and Senior Reference Attorney Brian Harkins and Law Librarian Karen Breda will show the “how” and “where” to find and interpret these and other sources of legislative history. \nThis program teaches advocates the research skills necessary to reconstruct a statute’s legislative history for use in pleadings\, briefs and oral arguments. \n$40 \nCPCS approved for 2.0 hours of credit from CAFL. To receive credits attendees must be logged on during the program for a minimum of 80% of the conference time. Certificates will be emailed to all attendees who were logged onto the program for at least 80% of the program.\n Register at: FEDERAL LEGISLATIVE HISTORY – December 2023 (socialaw.com) \nOnline registration is encouraged.

SUMMARY:Working with clients who are Deaf and hard of hearing and their families: a presentation by the Massachusetts Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (MCDHH)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In Massachusetts and elsewhere in the United States\, access to the courts and legal services by Deaf and hard of hearing individuals remains problematic. This happens for a variety of reasons – insufficient numbers of legal American Sign Language interpreters\, Certified Deaf Interpreters (CDI) and Communication Access Realtime Translation (CART) providers. \nAdditionally\, knowledge related to the provision of appropriate communication access services remains elusive\, as does the proper implementation of such services across a wide spectrum of legal and social services. \nThis presentation by MCDHH will help you to understand what appropriate communication access is; what cultural\, communicative\, procedural and technical considerations to take into account when working with Deaf and hard of hearing individuals and families\, and how MCDHH staff can work with you to ensure positive outcomes for our constituency. \nOrganizer: Deborah Cassell\, CAFL Resource Attorney (Barnstable County)\, deborahcassell_atty@hotmail.com \nZoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82494978446?pwd=ZGNDc3hDK2tTS0J0dDZLZktJRDFGdz09 \nCLE: 2 CAFL[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
