ABA LLC Institute - Time to Register!
Some of you may remember my post from last year on the American Bar Association's LLC Institute, an annual program at which I have presented and from which I have benefitted. This year's institute is scheduled for November 7 & 8 at the Stetson Tampa Law Center. The registration deadline is October 25. The registration site can be found here.
The program agenda is, as usual, amazing. Baylor Law's Beth Miller will lead off (with others) in presenting updates on relevant decisional law. Additional highlights include panels on "LLC Agreements That Went Wrong, and How to Fix Them: Case Studies and War Stories" and "Re-Imagining the Business Trust as a Sustainable Business Form" (the latter featuring friend and Florida Law prof Lee-Ford Tritt) and an ethics program featuring (among others) Bob Keatinge, who is always illuminating and entertaining. Presentations by other LLC Institute favorites (including Tom Rutledge, whose message to me prompted this post) pepper the program.
On Thursday night, at the annual dinner, Mitchell Hamline School of Law Emeritus Professor Dan Kleinberger will receive the 2019 Martin I. Lubaroff Award. Most business law profs know Dan, who has (among other things) been a tremendous servant of the academy and the bar on unincorporated business entity issues. I have benefitted from that service. I am sad to miss being at the institute this year to see him get that award and congratulate him in person.
The LLC Institute is where the LLC elite meet. If you have not attended this program and research/write in the unincorporated business associations area, I recommend you check it out. Heck, I recommend that you attend anyway. It's a super two days of learning and networking in a lovely part of the country. Continuing legal education credit is available.
