Holmes, “Path of the Law,” Thu., Jan. 20, 7:15 PM, Dodd Hall Rm. 399

The Los Angeles Legal Theory Reading Group will have its first meeting next Thursday, January 20, at 7:15 PM, Dodd Hall Room 399, UCLA. Dodd Hall is adjacent to the UCLA Law School; room 399 is in the northwest corner of the 3rd floor. Directions to Dodd and parking information are available here.

Meeting Agenda:

We’ll talk about logistics of the reading group and discuss Oliver Wendell Holmes’s Path of the Law, 10 Harv. L. Rev. 457 (1897), which is available online [HTML], in JSTOR, or in Hein. (If you want a PDF of the article and are unable to access it through JSTOR or Hein. (If you want a PDF of the article and are unable to access it through JSTOR or Hein, let me know, and I can email it to you.)

RSVP:

If you are planning on coming to the January 20 meeting, please RSVP by the 19th, if possible. If you’d like to come but won’t know for sure until the last minute, that’s fine–just let me know so that I can arrange for food. (Also, please let me know of any dietary preferences or restrictions.)

If you aren’t able to make it to the meeting next week but have input on the group’s planning (e.g., what topics to focus on, when and where to hold regular meetings, how much reading to do, etc.), please let me know by email.

Communication and Emails:

I plan to send out one to two emails to the group’s email list per meeting (one announcing the reading and perhaps a reminder the day prior to the meeting). If you would like to be added to the email list, please contact me.

I will also try to post all relevant information to the website at its new, official location. At least for the time being, I’ll try to mirror the information that appears on that site on this site as well.
