America and the Courts began with an update on the U.S. Supreme Court schedule.

America and the Courts featured speeches:

Justice Stephen Breyer spoke in Washington on November 11, 2004 to attendees of a Paris Bar Association conference on the French and American legal systems. Justice Breyer, fluent in several languages, spoke in French for the first two minutes of his speech.

Judge Wallace Tashima gave the keynote address for a conference in Los Angeles on November 6, 2004 at the Japanese American National Museum. It was the 60th anniversary of four Supreme Court cases challenging the curfew and internment of Japanese-Americans in several camps during World War II. Judge Tashima is a California native who was interned as a child in an Arizona camp with his family. He was elevated to the Ninth Circuit of the U.S. Court of Appeals by President Clinton in 1996. close
