Criminal Law Spring Update

This Spring we focus on race and implicit bias as it impacts the criminal justice system and our communities.

Learn why Colorado Criminal Code, Title 18, was amended to address bias-motivated crimes and how the current law is different from the prior law. Additionally hear how federal and state law enforcement agencies partner on hate crimes and incidents.

Evaluate, examine, and discuss the proposed Implicit Bias Rule, Criminal Rule 24(d)(5), concerning jury selection.

And finally, examine and understand the Colorado Prosecutorial Dashboards with the Disparity Analysis at Points of Prosecutorial Discretion and consider the takeaways applicable to the greater prosecution and defense community, including the perspective of Angela J. Davis, distinguished professor, expert, and author of Arbitrary Justice: The Power of the American Prosecutor.

When: May 9, 2:00 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.

Where: CBA CLE East Classroom
