A Conversation with Judge Stephanos Bibas

Abstract

The editors of the Catholic University Law Review are pleased to present as our final event of this symposium a conversation with the Honorable Judge Stephanos Bibas. Judge Bibas has served on the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit since 2017. Before joining the federal bench, he served as a professor of law and criminology at the University of Pennsylvania, Law School, and as the director of the Penn Law Supreme Court Clinic. Judge Bibas previously clerked for Justice Anthony Kennedy on the Supreme Court and Judge Higginbotham of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. He’s been described as one of the best writers on the federal bench, and as law students, I know we are all very appreciative of that. But perhaps most impressively, after having seen what it takes to pull off a day like this, he was the symposium editor for the Yale Law Journal
