The Association will once again host the Illinois Supreme Court Civil Cases Year-in-Review, an information-packed seminar featuring Illinois Appellate Court Justice Ann B. Jorgensen of the Second District, along with past ALA presidents J. Timothy Eaton and Michael T. Reagan. The panel will discuss the significant civil cases decided by the Illinois Supreme Court during the past year. 

 As in years' past, the seminar will be presented in multiple locations. The initial presentation will be held on January 21, 2016, at Maldaner’s Restaurant in Springfield. The panel will also present the seminar on January 28, 2016, in Chicago at Neal Gerber & Eisenberg LLP and on February 4, 2016, in Wheaton at the DuPage County Judicial Center.
