2010/2011 ANNUAL REPORT

This Section held its annual kickoff dinner, featuring a panel
discussion that included Circuit Court Judge Lenore R.
Gelfman, University of Maryland School of Law Professor
Susan Hankin and animal law attorney Mindy Felinton on
the evolving property status of animals, at the Elkridge
Furnace Inn in October. It hosted the Mid-Atlantic Animal
Law Symposium, an all-day event featuring panel discussions

animal legislation in the state. |
PURPOSE:
|
The charge of the Committee is to build and establish an MSBA Animal Law Section that will provide a
forum for the open exchange of ideas about legal issues that concern the
treatment of all animals, the protections afforded to animals, and the rights
and responsibilities of persons who have an interest in animals. The purpose
of the Animal Law Section will be to facilitate the development of good legal
practice in animal-related issues by providing educational programs and
resources and by participating in the legislative process.
