You are cordially invited to attend the 25th Annual U.S. Court of Federal Claims Judicial Conference on Thursday, November 15, 2012. The theme of this year's conference, "Growing Areas of Practice in the Court of Federal Claims," celebrates the court's 30 years of fulfilling its congressional mandate through its unique areas of practice. The Conference and luncheon will be held in the National Courts Building, with a reception at the neighboring Decatur House to follow.
The Conference will kick off with a "Meet the Circuit Judges" panel featuring the Honorable S. Jay Plager, who will serve as the moderator and introduce the Circuit's newest judges: Circuit Judges O'Malley, Reyna, and Wallach - to the Court of Federal Claims bench and bar. The General Session will consist of panels of judges, leading Hill staff and practitioners with expertise in the important areas of the Court of Federal Claims' jurisdiction, with a special emphasis on tax, military pay, and contracts. There will additionally be a panel to consider the ethical concerns raised by certain class and collective actions brought before the court in pay and Rails-to-Trails litigation. A concurrent Vaccine Session will focus on hot topics before the Office of Special Masters, including implementation of proposed Table amendments following last year's release of the Institute of Medicine Report on Vaccine Safety and proposed changes to the Vaccine Practice Guidelines.
