The Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies is a group of conservatives and libertarians interested in the current state of the legal order. It is founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be.

  1. Intellectual Property: Intellectual Property Rights with the Emergence of AI

    Intellectual Property: Intellectual Property Rights with the Emergence of AI

    Artificial Intelligence is now part of daily life. AI has improved efficiency, predicted outcomes with accuracy, and even created innovations. At the same time, however, AI and its capabilities are evolving faster than the laws and regulations governing its use. AI presents new challenges to intellectual property—from inventorship and authorship issues to liability. This panel will explore the intersection of AI and Intellectual Property rights. In the copyright context, it must be determined who is the owner of AI-generated works to whether it is fair use to train AI models using copyrighted works. In the patent context, it must be determined whether AI can be an inventor and whether AI can or should be used to assist in the drafting of patents. It is also not settled who has the power to regulate AI—the USPTO and other federal agencies, or only Congress? These are all questions that will eventually be answered by the courts or legislation. This panel will explore these questions and more as it looks to try and answer how we can move forward in a world filled with AI while ensuring the protection of intellectual property rights. Featuring: Mr. Jordan Gimbel, Associate General Counsel, Microsoft Hon. Melissa Holyoak, Commissioner, Federal Trade Commission Hon. Darrell Issa, United States Representative (CA 48th District) Hon. Paul Redmond Michel, Former Chief Judge, United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit Moderator: Hon. Ryan T. Holte, United States Court of Federal Claims & Jurist-In-Residence Professor of Law, The University of Akron School of Law

    Practice Groups: Physician, Heal Thyself— Regulatory Reform of the Legal Profession

    In the twentieth century, state supreme courts and legislatures limited the practice of law to licensed law school graduates and prevented nonlawyers from investing in law firms. This regulatory structure has not yielded a sufficient supply of affordable legal services to keep pace with demand: despite government and charitable funding and pro bono work, over 90% of the basic civil legal needs of low-income Americans now go unmet. As lawyers have taken an interest in regulatory reform in this century, some have begun to scrutinize our own profession and explore whether innovative structural changes can help close this justice gap. The experts on this panel will equip attendees to consider reform in their states by examining the pros and cons of three such changes: (1) licensing legal paraprofessionals to perform limited legal services; (2) allowing nonlawyers to invest in legal service providers; and (3) reforming legal education and licensure to increase the supply of lawyers, especially in underserved geographic and practice areas. Featuring: Hon. Clint Bolick, Justice, Supreme Court of Arizona Hon. Charles Canady, Chief Justice, Florida Supreme Court Ms. Danielle Hirsch, Managing Director, Court Consulting Division, National Center for State Courts Ms. Lucy Ricca, Executive Director, Deborah L. Rhode Center on the Legal Profession, Stanford Law School Moderator: Hon. J. Brett Busby, Justice, Texas Supreme Court

  3. Showcase Panel III: Sex, Gender, and the Law

    Showcase Panel III: Sex, Gender, and the Law

    The 1964 Civil Rights Act outlaws discrimination on the basis of sex in employment. In addition, in 1972, The Higher Education Act was amended to prohibit the exclusion of any person from any federally funded educational program or activity on the basis of sex. These seemingly simple prohibitions have recently been the focus of considerable attention. How, for example, do they apply to individuals whose gender identity is seemingly at odds with their biological sex? What does the Bostock decision say about their situation? Is a federally funded school required to assign bathrooms, showers, changing rooms, and sleeping quarters based on gender identity? Is an employer required to do so? If not required, is it permissible for these entities to do so under the law? What about athletics? What about prisons? And quite apart from what the law is now, what should it be? What about what is often called “gender affirming” treatment? Should a parent be able to obtain such treatment for a child? Should a parent be able to refuse it? What is the role of schools? Should the government be obligated to fund “gender affirming” care for prisoners or individuals on relief? Finally, does or should the law require others to accept a person’s preferred gender identity—at work, at school, elsewhere—and/or adjust their speech to reflect that identity? Featuring: Prof. Doriane Coleman, Thomas L. Perkins Distinguished Professor of Law, Duke Law School Ms. Erin Hawley, Senior Counsel, Vice President of Center for Life & Regulatory Practice, Alliance Defending Freedom Hon. Andrea Lucas, Commissioner, U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Prof. Sarath Sanga, Professor of Law & Co-Director, Center for the Study of Corporate Law, Yale Law School Mr. D. John Sauer, Principle, James Otis Law Group LLC; Former Solicitor General, Missouri Moderator: Ms. Jennifer Braceras, Founder, Independent Women’s Law Center; Former Commissioner, U.S. Commission on Civil Rights
