ILEP organizes symposia, co-sponsored by law schools and attended by academics, jurists, and practitioners. Leading professors and law experts present papers on class actions, securities law, corporate governance, and consumer protection issues. Papers presented at these Symposia have been published in prestigious law reviews and cited by numerous courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court in Amgen, Halliburton and Morrison.
ILEP, the Institute for Law and Economic Policy, joins in mourning the loss of its cofounder, Edward Labaton. Ed’s reputation in plaintiffs’ securities fraud class action bar enabled ILEP to attract top scholars in the field, and to organize for over 25 years highly regarded symposiums that produced over 100 law review articles, many of which were cited by the U.S. Supreme Court and others in major cases. ILEP is one of Ed’s many ongoing legacies, for which we all are grateful.
