Comments

“Each year, the Allen Chair Symposium explores a single topic of national interest. This year, working in collaboration with Professors Carl Tobias and Kevin Walsh, the University of Richmond Law Review presents the 2011 Allen Chair Symposium entitled “Everything But the Merits: Analyzing the Procedural Aspects of the Healthcare Litigation.” This year’s symposium focuses on the procedural and litigation issues that have permeated numerous challenges to the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. While much of the attention has focused on the constitutionality of the legislation, lawyers litigating these cases had to address critical issues involving the role of states as litigants, the distinction between facial and applied challenges, severability, and other issues. The symposium will bring lawyers and scholars together in order to explore these all too important procedural issues; so join us and be part of this important discussion!” –from event website
