April 2024 Newer Lawyers' Luncheon

The Newer Lawyers Committee of the Minnesota Chapter of the Federal Bar Association is pleased to continue its series of luncheons hosted by members of Minnesota's Federal Bench. In April, we welcome you to “Meet Your Magistrates” – a panel moderated by Judge Hildy Bowbeer, featuring several of our esteemed Magistrate Judges: Judge Douglas M. Micko, Judge John F. Docherty, Judge Elizabeth Cowan Wright, and Judge Tony N. Leung. Come learn about the pivotal role magistrate judges play in the District of Minnesota, hear about their various pathways to the bench, and get some practice pointers for appearing before a Magistrate Judge in Federal Court.

The panel will take place on Wednesday, April 24th, 2024, from 12:00-1:00PM at the St. Paul Federal Courthouse (316 Robert St N., St Paul, MN 55101) in the Devitt Ceremonial Courtroom.
