    In recent years, the Supreme Court has announced decisions in the area of national security that have significant and broad implications for civil rights law and litigation.  This panel of distinguished speakers will explore the impact of decisions in the area of immunity, state secrets doctrine, and Bivens liability, with a special emphasis on what they mean for various areas of civil rights law.  The speakers bring a wide range of experience to the endeavor, as their perspectives are enriched by both academic engagement and on the ground experience with many of the leading national security cases from the past several years.
