The 27th Annual Spring Meeting
The 27th Annual Spring Meeting: Washington, D.C. like you have never seen it before! Located a few minutes from Capitol Hill, on the historic Potomac River, the Gaylord National Resort & Spa offers the most deluxe meeting and event space in the area. This year's conference will be held April 1-4 and will have a special focus on the tough policy choices facing the new administration and Congress.
The Court Administration Committee will hold a joint session with the Technology and Communications Committee on Friday afternoon at 4:00 p.m. Panelists will discuss "Net Neutrality and Identity Theft" in two separate panels. H. Jason Gold of Wiley Rein in McLean, Va. will moderate the "Net Neutrality" panel. Panelists include Scott Cleland of NetCompetition.org in McLean, Va. and Gigi Sohn of Public Knowledge in Washington, D.C. Kelly Beaudin Stapleton of Traxi LLC in New York will moderate the second panel, "Identity Theft." David Lincicum of the Federal Trade Commission in Washington, D.C. and Donald F.
