2010 Milton Handler Lecture

Posted by D. Daniel Sokol

THE ANTITRUST AND TRADE REGULATION COMMITTEE OF THE ASSOCIATION OF THE BAR OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK INVITES YOU TO THE 2010 MILTON HANDLER LECTURE

Professor Handler and the New York City Bar Association established the Milton Handler lectures in 1973 to explore significant developments in antitrust law and policy. With the help of a generous endowment created by Professor Handler, the lectures have since become a very important event for the antitrust community and have led to significant contributions to the advancement of antitrust law. This year’s lecture is in keeping with Professor Handler’s original tradition of inviting leading scholars to discuss the development of antitrust law and policy. This is a particularly exciting time because of possible changes in antitrust enforcement. We have invited Professor C. Scott Hemphill of Columbia Law School to present his views on the Obama Administration’s first year of antitrust enforcement. He will discuss what can we learn from the enforcement actions and policy positions taken by the Obama Administration so far, and how those might alter the scope of current antitrust doctrine. Please join us for what promises to be a stimulating and enjoyable program.

TIME: Wednesday, April 7, 2010, 8.30 – 10.30 a.m.

PLACE: The Great Hall of the Association New York City Bar Association 42 West 44th Street New York, NY 10036

SPEAKER: C. Scott Hemphill, Professor of Law and Milton Handler Fellow, Columbia Law School
