Letter from The Chair

On behalf of the ABA Section of International Law, I hope you will join me August 7-12, at the 2008 Annual Meeting. Coming off a fantastic April Section Spring Meeting, in New York, I feel that I can speak for many that there is no better place for world-class entertainment, restaurants and sightseeing than New York City! 

The Section’s slate of CLE Programs will be world-class as well.  For this year’s Annual Meeting, the Section of International Law will be headquartered at the Waldorf=Astoria Hotel, located at 301 Park Avenue and our CLE programs will take place Friday, August 8th through Sunday, August 10th at the Sheraton New York, which will be the ABA CLE Center.Be sure not to miss our Presidential Showcase Program on Friday, August 8th from 10:30AM – 12:00PM entitled, “Individual Rights, Terrorism and the Rule of Law:  The World After 9/11.” This program will take place at the Hilton New York, East Ballroom, 3rd floor. The Section is co-sponsoring several other CLE programs. I encourage you to visit our Section’s website at www.abanet.org/intlaw/annual08 to view the full agenda and Section social events.

Our traditional Friday night “Welcome Reception” will be held in The Starlight Room, at The Waldorf=Astoria Hotel from 6:00PM – 7:30PM.  This reception will be jointly sponsored by the Section of Intellectual Property and the Section of Science and Technology.  Come enjoy the magnificent views of New York City while networking with the members of all three ABA Sections!  (The ticket price is $25 and the ticket code is SDI1.)

On Saturday evening, the Section will be celebrating “130 Years Serving as the Gateway to International Law and Practice.”  We have planned an exceptionally special black tie (optional) reception and dinner at the New York Yacht Club (37 West 44th Street) from 7:00PM – 10:30PM. (The ticket price is $195 and the ticket code: SDI2.)

We hope you will make plans to join us at the Annual Meeting this August as we celebrate the Section’s Anniversary.  Please be sure to visit the ABA Annual Meeting website at http://www.abanet.org/annual/2008/ for more information and to register.  

See you in New York City!

Sincerely,


Jeffrey Golden Chair, Section of International Law
