The American Antitrust Institute, based in Washington, D.C., has announced plans to hold a first-ever seminar to educate US judges on antitrust. According to reports, the Institute has partnered with Stanford University to hold the three-day event on the university’s campus in California; the Institute said it hopes for about 25 federal judges in attendance to listen to experts discuss competition law, as well as other topics. Institute president Albert Foer said in a statement that the event will be the group’s “first effort” to include judges in the antitrust conversation as it enters the world of education, apart from its usual agenda of promoting strength in government enforcement, though Foer said the event would provide a curriculum separate from ideological bias despite its often liberal viewpoints.
