Hi everyone,
Sorry for this duplication. I earlier sent an announcement for the
Restitution Rollout conference in a graphic-rich email, which included the
program, but the listserv turned the graphics into individual attachments.
So on behalf of the organizers I now send a text-only version, while those
who wish can look at the graphic version, now in a single attachment.

EVENT SUMMARY
The American Law Institute (ALI), the leading legal-reform organization in
the United States, restates basic legal subjects to inform the legal
profession what "the law" is in a particular subject. In 2010, the ALI
approved the Restatement (Third) Restitution and Unjust Enrichment (2011),
the subject of our Restitution Rollout.
At the conference, ALI Reporter Andrew Kull and ALI Director Lance Liebman
will introduce the Restatement Third of Restitution. They will be joined by
leading Restitution and Contracts scholars including Joe Perillo, Lionel
Smith, John McCamus, Peter Linzer, and Caprice Roberts, among others.
