Join us for a conversation between Prof. Kate Shaw and Paul Smith on voting rights and gerrymandering going into an election year.
Paul Smith is the Senior Vice President at the Campaign Legal Center. He has argued 21 Supreme Court cases in a wide range of issues, including many voting rights cases. Among his important victories is Lawrence v. Texas, the landmark gay rights case.
The panel will look at how equal access to justice is the foundation for human rights and the rule of law. Barriers to justice negatively impact individuals, as well as their families and communities. Promoting the rule of law and ensuring access to justice for all is essential to allow all groups in society to equally enjoy their rights.
This event will bring together speakers from the local legal community and the judicial bench to highlight the importance of equal access to justice. Boyd’s ACS Chapter and FBASO hope to facilitate a high-level discussion and dialogue on the importance of making justice equal and available to all.
