OACDL Eyewitness Identification/Best Practices

SAVE THE DATE!

Did you see what you THINK you saw? More importantly, did the witness see what he said he saw? How do you know? How can you suppress the witness statement? What do you say to the jury? How do the new police procedures in Ohio affect identifications, what can we litigate pre-trial and are there new remedies available to our clients? Answers are coming!  

On the morning of Friday, April 26, Ohio Association Criminal Defense Lawyers (OACDL) will bring in experts Jennifer Dysert and Karen Newirth from the Innocence Project, along with our own Bill Gallagher of Cincinnati, for a half-day seminar at Capital University Law School. Get the answers on the science, litigation and how to challenge the legal framework of Eyewitness Identification evidence. The morning session will be a LOW-COST seminar for OACDL members.

The afternoon session will include invaluable information packed with Best Business Practice topics, including Structuring Your Practice, Finances, Tax Consequences, Health Insurance and Retirement. In addition, there will be presentations on Identifying Mental Health Issues and Dealing with Stress. The afternoon session will be FREE for all OACDL members. 

Details are being finalized with the Innocence Project and Capital University.  But mark your calendars now!
