Supreme Court Justice Kagan set to speak in Indianapolis
Posted May 01, 2017 7:00 am
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan is scheduled to visit Indianapolis for a speech before an audience of lawyers and federal judges.
Kagan is speaking during Monday evening's dinner of the 7th Circuit Bar Association Annual Meeting. That group is made up of lawyers who practice with the federal courts in Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin.
Kagan is a former Harvard Law School dean who has been on the nation's highest court since 2010 after being nominated by President Barack Obama. She is among three women on the nine-member court and is one of its four reliably liberal justices.
Kagan's speech comes three weeks after Neil Gorsuch joined the court as the first nominee by President Donald Trump.
