Introduction

Abstract

The Catholic University Law Review proudly held its Spring 2025 Symposium, titled Traditional Judicial Power & Doctrinal Development, bringing together distinguished legal scholars, practitioners, and students to explore the relationship between judicial power and the evolution of legal doctrine. The event took place on March 28, 2025, at The Catholic University of America Columbus School of Law. This thought-provoking Symposium examined how traditional notions of judicial authority shape the capacity of courts to influence, moderate, or even prevent changes in legal doctrine. Panelists and speakers presented cutting-edge research, offering scholarly insights into this critical area of the law. The presentations will be published in an upcoming issue of the Catholic University Law Review
