Register for the 2010 Appellate Defender Training Today!


Limited Enrollment


Enrollment is limited by faculty size and the number of meeting rooms available, on a first-come, first-serve basis. Total registration for ADT will be limited to 42 participants for the Appellate Defender Skills Writing Track and 14 for the Advanced Advocacy Track. Registration for each small group workshop is limited to seven (7) participants. Furthermore, registration is restricted to attorneys engaged in or about to become engaged in the defense of criminal cases. Public and contract defenders and assigned appellate counsel will receive priority. Applications have exceeded available spaces at past events, so early registration is strongly encouraged.
