Court of Criminal Appeals Boot Camp
The Court of Criminal Appeals (CCA) is unfamiliar territory for most lawyers and success in this court requires not only thorough preparation, but mastery of oral and written advocacy as well. This boot camp allows lawyers to observe oral arguments in real cases, followed by analysis by the attorneys who participated discussing preparation, tips and considerations for deciding to seek review in the CCA. A networking lunch will be provided allowing opportunities to meet with colleagues who share this focus.
