2021 CLEMENCY PANEL SERIES:
The Future of the President’s Pardon Power
September 14, 21, and 28 | 12:30-2 p.m. EDT | Zoom
Join us for the 2021 Clemency Panel Series: The Future of the President’s Pardon Power. The series’ three panels will discuss the use of the pardon power by President Donald Trump and how it may influence pardoning in the future. They will consider whether Trump’s irregular pardoning may have been a blessing in disguise by prompting much-needed reforms in law and in practice.
For writings on these topics, check out Volume 33, Issue 5 of the Federal Sentencing Reporter which provides the foundation for these panels.
