BH Room 120
Open to the YLS Community Only
Join us for a discussion with Professor Jane Stoever of University of California Irvine about her forthcoming article in Volume 35.1 of LawFem, Removing the Bias of Criminal Convictions from Family Law. Professor Stoever has extensive experience teaching domestic violence clinics and engaging in scholarship in the areas of domestic violence law, family law, feminist legal theory, and clinical legal theory. In Professor Stoever’s clinical teaching, she supervises law students representing clients in family law, immigration, and other legal and non-legal interventions into domestic violence. Professor Stoever’s scholarly work focuses on the multiple oppressions domestic violence survivors face and explores ways that the law can better respond to complex experiences of intimate partner abuse. In addressing the interdisciplinary problem of domestic violence, her scholarship frequently brings together the worlds of law, public health, psychology, and survivors’ lived experiences. Lunch will be provided. If you or an event attendee requires disability-related accommodations, please contact claire.sullivan@yale.edu in advance of the event.
