ACIC Private Notes
October 2016
|
Welcome to the October 2016 issue of ACIC Private Notes! It was wonderful seeing so many of you at this year's election themed conference: Make Investments Great Again! We couldn't help but think some of our panelists might make great candidates one day . . . stranger things have happened!
Click here to see what it was all about and get links to the conference papers. A summary of the conference will be in next month's newsletter.
In this month's newsletter you will find links to summaries of case law developments in the Southwest region, courtesy of Aaron Borden of Vedder Price, and the Rocky Mountain and Western Regions, thanks to our newest contributor, Andrew Thomison from Baker Botts.
Please let us know if you have an interesting article idea or recent development to share with your ACIC colleagues; we would be pleased to consider your submission for our next issue.
