|
This Section partnered with the L.L.M Executive Board at the American University Washington College of Law to host a presentation by State Senator Jamin B. (Jamie) Raskin on proposed legislation in the Maryland General Assembly. It also collaborated with the University of Maryland Student Animal Legal Defense Fund for a panel discussion on tort damages and animals. The Section continued to produce and disseminate an informative newsletter and comment on proposed legislation in the Maryland General Assembly and, in April, hosted the Third Annual Animal Law Symposium at Westminster Hall in Baltimore. It will host a panel entitled “The Continuing Fight Against Animal Cruelty” at the MSBA Annual Meeting. |
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. |
