Plaintiffs' Summary Judgment Motion in Challenge to Louisiana's Proposed Advertising Rules

ADVERTISEMENTS

Public Citizen, which is leading a challenge to various provisions of Louisiana's proposed new Rules of Professional Conduct governing lawyer advertising (due to take effect October 1, 2009), has filed a second motion for summary judgment (here) in the Eastern District of Louisiana.   The argument is on July 29th in federal district court in New Orleans. 

BTW, Brian Wolfman, who worked at Public Citizen for many years and was instrumental in prosecuting this and other challenges to restrictive lawyer advertising rules, recently joined the faculty at Georgetown University Law Center, where he will serve as a co-director of the GULC's Institute for Public Representation (IPR) and will head IPR's Civil Rights Clinic.  Good luck, Brian!
