CLE

This program will introduce attorneys, particularly those in the first three years of practice or who do not practice regularly in federal court, to the nuts and bolts of practicing in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York by focusing on the District’s Local Rules of Practice, which supplement the Federal Rules of Civil and Criminal Procedure and often determine the course, if not outcome, of litigation.

This CLE is intended for all Law Day Volunteers who will be engaging in outreach efforts to schools in the NDNY and will cover this year’s Law Day Theme.  It will also be open to FCBA Members. This program will be live in Albany at the James T. Foley Courthouse and simulcast to the James M. Hanley Building (7th Floor) in Syracuse.  There is not a virtual option. 

Mark your calendars for our 2025 Program which will give you all the tools you need to confidently handle a Pro Bono prisoner case in Federal Court. In addition to skills training, this full-day program will include credit hours in DEI, Ethics, and Cybersecurity.
