A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Disciplinary Hearing.
Presented by Sean Carter
Friday, Sept. 5, 8:30-11:30 a.m.
3 ethics credits
Oregon Convention Center, Portland

Spend your morning with the country’s foremost (and perhaps only) humorist-at-law, Sean Carter, and find out what really happened on the way to the disciplinary hearing. With nine commandments for avoiding ethical problems and eight suggestions for improving professionalism, Carter has 17 ways to help attorneys remember their ethical and professionalism obligations. Each year Carter presents more than 100 humorous programs on such topics as constitutional law, legal ethics, professionalism and diversity. As a legal commentator, he has appeared on television programs and is a frequent guest on talk radio shows across the country.


Child Abuse Reporting

Friday, Sept. 5, noon-1 p.m.
1 child abuse reporting credit
Oregon Convention Center, Portland

A variety of hypothetical situations will be the backdrop for a discussion of an attorney’s reporting obligations under ORS 9.114.


Can’t We All Just Get Along?

Presented by Sean Carter
Friday, Sept. 5, 1:30-4:30 p.m.
3 access to justice credits
Oregon Convention Center, Portland

Court decisions and legislation eliminated laws and practices that historically enforced and encouraged discrimination, but "getting along" with each other is a different matter. As an attorney of color and the country’s foremost (and perhaps only) humorist-at-law, Sean Carter delves into biases in the legal profession. Using his legal experiences and touches of humor, Carter takes a frank look at bias and the importance eliminating bias in the legal profession.

Animal Law
Thursday, Sept. 11, 9 a.m.-noon
3 general CLE credits
Oregon State Bar Center, Tigard

Using short clips from a variety of movies over the decades, an animal law expert will guide you through the myriad problems that tend to arise in litigation involving animals. The problems are both procedural (at the pleading, discovery, evidence, and trial stages) and substantive (tort, contractual, and equitable theories of recovery and defense). This cinematic perspective will increase your understanding and appreciation of the aesthetics, emotions and realities involved with
handling animal legal issues.

Live webcast available.

Ast (10/3) Bend (9/26) CB (9/26) Eug (10/3) GP (9/25) HR (9/26) Klam (9/26) LG (9/26) Med (10/3) New (10/3) Pend (10/3) Red (10/3) Rose (9/25) Salem (9/26) Tig (10/1) Vale (9/26)

Dispute Resolution from the Experts
Friday, Sept. 19, 8:45 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
3.25 general CLE or practical skills
credits, 2 ethics credits and 1
access to justice credit
Oregon Convention Center, Portland

Experienced judges and practitioners will share their wealth of knowledge to help enhance and enrich the mediation and arbitration aspects of your practice. Explore mediator quality, including quality-focused mechanisms such as certification, licensure and regulation, and gain an understanding of the interactions between these mechanisms. The experts will also discuss mediation ethics and the ethics of mediator competency. Learn about tribal Peacegiving courts and how Peacegiving blends modern law with traditional conflict resolution. A session on the fundamentals of arbitration in
Oregon will qualify arbitrators under Multnomah County’s mandatory training requirement.
