Wake Forest
University School of Law, the University of Texas
School of Law, and the American Law Institute are sponsoring a
Symposium on
April 2-3 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina to discuss the upcoming
Restatement

virtually all
of the basic principles of tort law, including duty, negligence,
factual

cases),
scope of liability (proximate cause), duty to rescue, emotional harm,
and land
possessor duties.
Many of the
leading torts scholars nationally and internationally
will be present, as will the two co-Reporters for this Restatement. In
addition, prominent American jurists and lawyers will gather to discuss
and
critique this Third Restatement of Torts. The schedule of events for
this
two-day conference is contained in the attached brochure.
Attendance
