Litigating with the Power of the State: The Role of the State Attorney General

LAW 786 | 2-3 Hours

This course will examine the unique institutional role of the state AG and challenges and complexities they face in providing legal advice and representation as the state’s top legal officer — including their status within their respective state systems, their relationship to the federal government, their role in both offensive and defensive litigation on behalf of the state, and their ever-increasing role in national and even international public policy issues.
