The case has been made over the past few years about how the criminal justice system has harsher impacts for individuals of color from policing, to bail decisions to sentencing. What has often been overlooked is what role the civil justice system has in perpetuating structural racism with harshest outcomes for Black and Brown litigants. This workshop will delve into the disparate impacts within civil legal issues and discuss possible remedies for lawyers and judges to consider.

One hour of CLE credit will be offered to the surrounding MCLE states.
