Join the National Immigration Law Center on Thursday, December 10, at 9:30 a.m. Pacific time for a 1.5-hour training (webinar) with optional MCLE credit available. (More information about MCLE credit is provided below.)

The DAPA (Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents) and expanded DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) initiatives that President Obama announced on Nov. 20, 2014, were blocked by a federal district court in Texas. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals recently upheld the Texas court’s order, and the U.S. Justice Department has said it will ask the Supreme Court to review the case, which is called Texas v. United States. So what is likely to happen now?

The training will cover these topics:

• ·         The history of the Texas v. United States case and other litigation related to executive actions that President Obama has taken on immigration policy.

• ·         Analyses of this executive action–related litigation.

• ·         Various scenarios for what might happen next in Texas v. United States.

• ·         How the 2016 election might affect the litigation and implementation of DAPA and expanded DACA
