- Michael Pratt, Chair of the ABA’s Standing Committee on Pro Bono and Public Service chimed in with some reflections on the recent Equal Justice Conference. Here’s Pratt’s post on the ABA Center for Pro Bono’s blog.
- Happy 50th Birthday to Amnesty International!
- Phew (for now at least), as the housing crisis in DC is averted. Check out Washington’s Legal Clinic blog for the story.
