Berkeley Boosts: Conversations on Civil Justice

Judicial Ethics and the Supreme Court

Friday, October 14, 10-10:30 A.M. Pacific

Webinar

Should U.S. Supreme Court justices be held to the same ethical code of conduct as other federal judges? Is legislation needed to increase the transparency and accountability of the Court? What would be the implications of such legislation?

This program will feature Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-Rhode Island), chair of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Federal Courts, Oversight, Agency Action, and Federal Rights, and Professor Amanda Tyler (Berkeley Law), an expert on the Supreme Court and author of "Justice, Justice Thou Shalt Pursue: A Life's Work Fighting for a More Perfect Union" (2021) (with Ruth Bader Ginsburg). Topics will include the pending legislative proposal, “The Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal, and Transparency Act.”

Berkeley’s Civil Justice Research Initiative is the lead sponsor for this event; Berkeley Judicial Institute co-sponsors. Join us on October 14, at 10 Pacific, noon Central, 1 Eastern.
