Program Summary:
The National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (NACDL) is accepting applications for our Spring Bring Your Own Case training program to be held March 26-28, 2025 in Las Vegas, NV. This training is offered to capital defense teams working on trial cases at the state level. Teams with capital resentencing cases are also eligible and encouraged to attend.
Teams engage in plenary sessions on foundational topics followed by brainstorming sessions with another team and rotating facilitators. Facilitators are expert capital litigators, mitigation specialists, investigators, and consulting mental health experts who engage with the teams in thinking through their cases. At the end of the training teams will leave with specific tasks to do in furtherance of their cases and will have built skills that can be applied to capital defense work.
