“The Maps Go to Court” with Robert Yablon

What just happened -- and what happens next? North Shore Fair Maps Monthly meeting 7 PM Monday December 13 (virtual). Register at https://bit.ly/NSFMMonthly.


Associate Professor Robert Yablon (UW-Madison Law School) co-directs the Law School’s State Democracy Research Initiative, which “aims to shine a spotlight on the states, which traditionally receive less attention than the federal government in legal scholarship and education, and to serve as a resource for academics, policymakers, and advocates across the country.”


Yablon received his bachelor's degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, his master's degree from the University of Oxford, and his J.D. from Yale. He clerked for U.S. Supreme Court Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor, and worked in private practice before joining UW-Madison Law School. He has been the principal author of dozens of appellate and trial-level briefs, and has argued in a number of state and federal courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court.
