Program Summary

If you’ve been paying attention to the news this year, you already know that the U.S. Supreme Court’s October 2023 term has been hugely consequential, with some opinions that could be best described as seismic, impacting the civil rights of millions of Americans. In this CLE program, we’ll go beyond the headlines to identify and discuss not only Supreme Court decisions in the areas of voting rights and gender and reproductive rights, but also the Court’s docket of civil rights cases affecting the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, immigration, and more. The panelists will discuss important holdings and share their insights on the practical ramifications of this term’s rulings and perspectives on future civil rights decisions at the Court. This session is perfect for civil rights practitioners, court watchers, and the civil-rights-curious, who’d like a more comprehensive look at civil rights cases and trends at the Supreme Court. Featuring Sam Brandao, Director of Tulane’s Civil Rights and Federal Practice Clinic, and Benjamin de Seingalt, an in-house privacy and compliance attorney, this CLE program is sponsored by the Civil Rights Section of the Federal Bar Association.

Presented by the Civil Rights Law Section

Key topics to be discussed:

  • Analyze the key U.S. Supreme Court decisions from the October 2023 term
  • Identify the practical ramifications of the Supreme Court's decisions on civil rights
  • Develop informed perspectives on future civil rights decisions at the Supreme Court
