The Jay L. Westbrook Bankruptcy Conference is the leading bankruptcy program in the Southwest and one of the premier programs in the nation. The conference attracts a stellar national faculty of academics, judges, and practitioners, and addresses a mix of business and consumer bankruptcy topics at an advanced level.
The 2011 program draws from a wide range of renowned speakers, including the Hon. W. Royal Furgeson, Jr., as the Friday keynote luncheon speaker, Bill Rochelle from media sponsor Bloomberg Law, and UT Law professor Henry Hu, formerly of the SEC. The ever-popular Jay Westbrook opens the conference with his “Recent Developments” panel, and speaks again Friday morning alongside panelists Ralph Brubaker, Ken Klee, and Jerry Smith for “Bankruptcy Jurisdiction after Stern v. Marshall.”
