The Law & Economics Center at George Mason University’s Antonin Scalia Law School was pleased to host the Thirteenth Annual Meeting of the American College of Business Court Judges on March 15 and 16, 2018, in Charleston, South Carolina.

The American College of Business Court Judges (ACBCJ) was founded in 2005 to provide substantive continuing professional education programs designed to aid specialized business court judges and other judges who frequently address complex business issues. Over a day and a half of timely, informative, and entertaining lectures and panel discussions, participants at the 2018 ACBCJ Annual Meeting honed their skills and learn about the latest developments in a wide range of topics, such as the economics of consumer protection, data privacy, the evolving status of individual arbitration agreements, and the fine points of the “business divorce.”

Each year, the ACBCJ invites the Law & Economics Center to help develop an educational program for the annual meeting, designed to equip judges with the tools necessary to efficiently and professionally navigate the increasingly complex issues they face as business court jurists.
