2011/2012 ANNUAL REPORT: |
This Section provided a number of educational programs focusing on practice in the Circuit Courts of Maryland, and the Section’s Appellate Practice subcommittee sponsored several other programs, including a joint effort with the newly formed Construction Law Section of the MSBA. Its newsletter, The Litigator, published in both electronic and hard copy format, continued to keep Section members informed of developments and topics of interest, as well as activities and programs. The Section presented an evening program on Attorney Trust Accounts and will present a program on settlement agreements and releases, as well as trucking law and appellate practice, at the MSBA Annual Meeting. |
PURPOSE: |
The purpose of this Section is to promote the objects of the Maryland State
Bar Association within the field of litigation, and to that end, to elevate the
level of trial and appellate practice in State and Federal courts serving
Maryland and to increase the professionalism of the general litigation attorney.
To achieve these objectives, the Section serves as a forum for exchanging ideas
among Section members and the Association, and between the Section and other
groups in matters of interest to litigators; consider issues with respect to
rules, procedures and practices of litigation and present recommendations on
those issues; develop relevant materials and seminars for continuing legal
education in cooperation with the Maryland Institute for Continuing Education of
Professional Lawyers, Inc. and others similarly interested; establish and
maintain regular contact with the State and Federal judiciary to achieve
resolution of problems of mutual concern; and generally to promote and further
the interests of the profession within the field of litigation. |
