About ILS

In 2001, the Center for American and International Law created the Institute for Litigation Studies.

Under the leadership of Judge Patrick Higginbotham, Chair of the Board of Trustees of The Center for American and International Law, an extraordinary Executive Committee was assembled to launch the Institute. Chaired by Trustee Harry Reasoner, the Committee includes many national luminaries.

The Institute focuses not only on the Center's traditional strength, continuing legal education, but also seeks to facilitate research and collegial reflection on litigation-related issues. Thus far, much of the work of the Institute has been devoted to Capital Trial Advocacy.
