Pulling Back the Curtain: Litigation 101

Property rights or protected wetlands? Economic liberty or COVID mask mandates? Equality before the law or racial equity and affirmative action?

These are among many furiously divisive policy battles playing out at the Supreme Court.

With the courts weighing so many critical issues this year, it’s more important than ever for policy leaders to understand how our legal system works.

The good news is that the courts aren’t just for lawyers anymore.

Join Pacific Legal Foundation for Litigation 101, the second installment in our Public Interest Law 101 series. Veteran public interest litigator Deborah La Fetra will guide you through an introductory crash course on the American legal system.

You’ll learn just what happens in a court case, how a case gets to the Supreme Court, what happens after a decision, and how you, as a policy professional, can play a role throughout all of it.
