Federal Criminal Appeals in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

Last week’s CLE event, hosted by the Federal Bar Association Chicago Chapter, educated attendees on criminal court appeals, particularly in the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. Organized in partnership with the Seventh Circuit Bar Association Criminal Law and Procedure Committee, attendees joined Zoom for You’ve Taken an Appeal in a Criminal Matter. Now What? This one-hour program walked federal practitioners through the life cycle of a federal criminal appeal, from the initial notice filed to the final client communication. The program’s featured presenters were Hannah V. Garst (Law Offices of Hannah Garst, P.C.) and Ruth F. Masters (MastersLaw LLC). Additionally, Saul Ewing LLP covered the program’s administrative costs.
