Call for Papers: 3rd Annual Workshop for Corporate & Securities Litigation – Boston, MA

Boston University School of Law

Boston University Law School invites submissions for the Third Annual Workshop for Corporate & Securities Litigation, which will be held Oct. 2-3, 2015, in Boston, MA.

This annual workshop brings together scholars focused on corporate and securities litigation to present their works-in-progress. The papers may address any aspect of corporate and securities litigation or enforcement, including but not limited to securities class actions, fiduciary duty litigation, or comparative approaches to business litigation. We welcome scholars working in a variety of methodologies, including empirical analysis, law and economics or other fields, and traditional doctrinal analysis. Participants will generally be expected to have drafts completed by the fall, although work in a more formative stage may also be included. Each author will provide a brief introduction, but most of the time in each session will be devoted to collective discussion of the paper.

Deadline: May 29, 2015. Send an abstract or draft of the paper to corpandseclitigation@gmail.com by May 29, 2015. Please include your name, current position, and contact information in the e-mail accompanying the submission.

Direct inquiries to: Professor David Webber (dhwebber@bu.edu), Professor Jessica Erickson (jerickso@richmond.edu), and Professor Verity Winship (vwinship@illinois.edu).
