NORML: Invitation to our Aspen Legal Seminar this June
Dear NORML Supporters,
We are pleased to announce that the details of the program and the registration information for the 2010 NORML Aspen Legal Seminar, scheduled for June 10-12 at the Gant Hotel in beautiful Aspen, CO, is now available on the NORML website:
Marijuana Law Reform - NORML Group_ID=6823
At this seminar we also permit interested non-lawyers to register and attend.
This legal seminar is approved for CLE credit by all states that require attorneys to obtain continuing legal education credits on an ongoing basis.
Those who have joined us at previous Aspen legal seminars will be pleased to know that we will once again be holding a benefit dinner on Friday evening at the lovely home of Chris and Gerry Goldstein, catered by celebrated Aspen chef Chris Lanter from Cache Cache, a popular Aspen restaurant; and we will be returning to Owl Farm, the legendary home of the late Hunter S. Thompson, on Saturday afternoon for a cookout as the guests of his widow Anita Thompson.
The legal seminar will consist of three days of lectures from leading criminal defense attorneys covering topics such as identifying and preparing evidentiary issues; inventory searches; rebutting the toxicologist and keeping your client out of jail; federalizing issues for future habeas challenges; the ethical considerations of setting fees; new ways to voir dire the jury in a drug case; new forms of electronic surveillance; important new decisions; and trying the losing case.
For those who handle medical marijuana-related cases, topics will include ethical considerations when representing medical marijuana growers, wholesalers, caregivers and dispensaries; and we will be hearing from attorneys experienced in the medical marijuana field from Colorado, California, New Mexico, Michigan, Oregon and Washington.
Check out the agenda here: Marijuana Law Reform - NORML Group_ID=6829
Again, at this seminar we also permit interested non-lawyers to register and attend.
The Gant Hotel has provided NORML with a special block of rooms at a reduced rate ($165 for one bedroom unit; $185 for two bedroom unit). Be sure to mention the 'NORML legal seminar' when you call to reserve a room:
Aspen Hotels, Condos & Lodging | The Gant | Hotels, Vacation Rentals & Ski Resorts in Aspen
Please mark your calendar now and plan to join us for what has become an annual event -- a lovely long weekend in the Rocky Mountains with like-minded friends and colleagues. Rooms at The Gant, seminar registrations and socials are all limited in space, so don't procrastinate because this unique event will sell out quickly!
*Sponsorships Available* If your law firm, medical cannabis collective, any related cannabusinesses or non-profit organizations have interest in sponsorship opportunities for NORML's 2010 Aspen Legal Seminar, please send an email to: legal@norml.org
Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.
