A leading voice in Civil Procedure, Simona Grossi, Theodore A. Bruinsma Fellow Professor of Law at the Loyola Law School of Loyola Marymount University, is the 2022-23 International Law Distinguished Visitor with her lecture, “Substantive Due Process After Dobbs v. Jackson: A Principled Approach to Protect our Constitutional Rights Against the Current Challenges.”

Professor Grossi’s Lecture will discuss her cutting-edge paper, THE U.S. CONSTITUTION IS NOT A CODE: UNRAVELING THE IDEA AND THE MEANING OF SUBSTANTIVE DUE PROCESS, that was recently selected by the National Civil Justice Institute for presentation at a Southern Methodist University Symposium. Professor Grossi has granted us special permission to share an early release of the paper prior to its publication. The paper is attached as “Related Content” to this event listing.
