Upcoming Events Five of the authors featured
in Volume 31-2 of the Dayton Law Review will present their ideas,
insights, and arguments regarding tort reform at a live event from 4 – 6

Law. These articles are written
by distinguished legal practitioners who are intimately familiar with the
issue of tort reform. They each have different viewpoints and insights that
will help students and faculty better understand tort reform, an issue that
has been the subject of political, legislative, and constitutional discourse
for some time. Information on these authors and their articles is provided
below. Students, faculty, and members of the local legal community are
welcomed and encouraged to attend this event. The Dayton Law Review
has been approved for one hour of CLE credit for this event.
