Fourth Circuit to Host Criminal Appellate Practice Seminar

Save the date! The Fourth Circuit is hosting a Criminal Appellate Practice Seminar on Monday, December 9, 2024. The program will feature a presentation on recent developments with the Sentencing Guidelines by Judge Carlton W. Reeves (S.D. Miss.), Chair of the United States Sentencing Commission. Other session topics will include emerging issues in criminal law, practical skills development in oral and written advocacy, attorney ethics, and a judicial panel featuring Judge Julius N.
