Consortium for Innovative Legal Education is pleased to announce some exciting news. Law students from across the country will have the opportunity to study with U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor the week of July 6, 2020, in Prague, the Czech Republic through the South Texas College of Law Houston study-abroad program.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Justice Sotomayor will be teaching a comparative study of the United States and European Supreme Courts. In this five-day program, students will examine the differences between the two systems including the structure of processing cases before courts; jurisdiction of the courts; standards of reviews in the lower court, executive, administrative, and congressional decisions; advocacy and best practices in oral and written presentations; and creating an ideal supreme court.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Prague program also features international and comparative law courses taught by faculty members from CILE member schools.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Scalia also have taught in international study-abroad programs offered through CILE-affiliated schools in Prague, Czech Republic; London, England; Galway, Ireland; and Valletta, Malta.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
