Susan Berson and Brent Henry Recognized as Health Care Trailblazers by the National Law Journal

In a perspective column for the New York Law Journal, Mintz Member Jason P.W. Halperin, a former federal prosecutor, provided an overview of the death penalty in the United States and offered historical and current arguments for why it should be removed from the criminal justice system altogether. Specifically, the piece examined the federal and state death penalty dichotomy, its history before the U.S. Supreme Court and how it has been implemented in a discriminatory manner, and looked at the national movement away from capital punishment. 

Mintz Member Jennifer B. Rubin authored a perspective column for the Daily Journal examining recent oral arguments before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in Meland v. Padilla, one of two cases challenging Senate Bill 826, California’s groundbreaking gender parity law for public company boards.

Mintz Member and Chair of the firm’s Pro Bono Committee Susan M. Finegan was selected to participate in Law360’s 2021 Access to Justice Editorial Advisory Board, which is a designated group of attorneys that provide feedback on the publication’s access to justice news coverage and insights on how best to shape future coverage.
