Next Monday we will have a rare opportunity to watch the Ninth Circuit in action.

Oral arguments in USA v. State of Arizona will be heard by a panel of three judges of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on Monday, November 1, 2010. The panel has given consent for live broadcast of the proceeding and the School of Law will make this broadcast available in the Francis Auditorium, beginning at 11:00 a.m.

The case involves the constitutionality of Arizona Senate Bill 1070, which requires state law enforcement officers to check a person’s immigration status under certain circumstances, and authorizes a warrantless arrest where there is probable cause to believe that the person has committed an offense making him or her removable from the United States. The U.S. Government, arguing that SB 1070 was preempted by federal statutes, sought a preliminary injunction to block enactment of the law. The preliminary injunction was granted in part and denied in part by the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona. The State of Arizona and its governor have appealed, seeking to remove the injunction imposed by the district court on certain portions of SB 1070.

The Ninth Circuit has posted all the briefs, including numerous amici curiae briefs, on the USA v. State of Arizona, No. 10-16645 page on their web site.

Oral arguments are expected to last approximately one hour. Pizza will be served in the Francis Auditorium.

The Drawing Board Luncheon is a regular colloquium series designed to permit members of the UT faculty (permanent and visiting) to present projects at an early stage of development. Unlike many colloquia series, here and elsewhere, that are often described as fora for the presentation of "works in progress" but which, in actuality, feature works that are entirely, or substantially, complete, the Drawing Board lives up to its name. This is a forum for faculty members who would like feedback, suggestions, and guidance at a point in time at which they can be made use of.

On Thursday, Nov. 4 at 11:30 in the Eidman Jury Room, Prof. Julius Getman will be speaking about his new book on unions in America. The labor movement is weak and divided. Some think that it is dying. But Prof. Getman demonstrates through examination of recent developments that a resurgent labor movement is possible. He proposes new models for organizing and innovating techniques to strengthen the strike weapon. Above all, he insists that unions must return to their historical roots as a social movement.

Sandwiches and drinks will be provided.
