This workshop will cover all things relating to federal habeas corpus, and we hope to have something useful for litigators of all experience levels. We will start with a quick overview of the basics before tackling some intricacies of federal habeas-with a focus on solving problems that attendees bring to the discussion. We hope to make the usually dense/complicated world of federal habeas corpus more accessible and less scary to all. We will circulate beforehand a comprehensive set of PowerPoint slides, so that attendees can read over them in advance and gain some understanding of the basics of federal habeas corpus rules and procedures. During the workshop itself, after a brief overview, the moderator will ask the panelists to talk through a couple of instructive issues in their own federal habeas corpus litigation before opening the floor for questions that the attendees may have relating to their cases.
