Amicus Briefs

The Amicus Curiae Committee

Members are appointed by resolution of the Board of Directors and are authorized only:

1) to consider requests for the Association to file amicus briefs
2) to recommend to the Board of Directors which requests should be granted; and
3) to facilitate the preparation and filing of the briefs that are authorized.

In determining whether to recommend and/or authorize the filing of an amicus curiae brief, the committee and the Board of Directors will follow the process set forth in the policy specifically adopted to govern such decisions, which is appended to the By-Laws.
