Property Rights and the Roberts Court: 2005–2025

For much of the past century, property rights were relegated to second-class status compared to the rest of the Bill of Rights. However, under the Supreme Court leadership of Chief Justice John Roberts, this trend has begun to shift.

In recognition of the 20th anniversary of the Chief Justice’s elevation to the Supreme Court, Pacific Legal Foundation is partnering with Berkeley Law’s Public Law and Policy Program to host a day-long conference exploring the major property rights developments and future of property rights law in the Roberts Court.

We’ll hear from two different panels of renowned legal scholars and accomplished litigators, as well as a keynote lunch discussion between Richard Epstein, director of the Classical Liberal Institute and law professor at NYU School of Law, and John Groen, executive vice president at PLF.

Attendance is free and seating is limited. Lunch will be provided with your registration (required). Register here, or scan the QR code on the event flyer.
