Some interesting panels are offered during this year’s Golden State Institute, which is the big annual educational event organized by the Antitrust, UCL, and Privacy Section of the California Lawyers Association. This year’s Institute will take place entirely online, on October 27-29, 2020. The cost to attend the entire Institute is only $50! Usually the fees run several hundred dollars, so this is a bargain. (A reduced price of $25 is offered for government lawyers, academics and non-practicing attorneys, and students can attend for free.)
A couple of the panels sound particularly interesting. The opening panel, “Recent Developments in Antitrust and Unfair Competition Law” (scheduled for 12:00 p.m. on October 27), is always very thorough and covers recent UCL decisions as well as antitrust cases. I’m also looking forward to the conversation with California Supreme Court Justice Joshua P. Groban, which will take place at 1:10 p.m. on October 27. Every year for some time, a different Supreme Court justice has agreed to come and talk to the Section, and this year’s discussion with Justice Groban should be really great. I remember the year Justice Corrigan spoke and I learned we have something in common: we are both cat people!
