Judge John Gleeson at Berkeley Law

Please join us for a conversation on criminal justice and the power of pro bono with Judge John Gleeson, moderated by Chesa Boudin, Executive Director of the Berkeley Criminal Law & Justice Center.

Judge Gleeson will speak about his work as a United States District Court Judge, Commissioner of the United States Sentencing Commission, and role as Partner and Co- Chair of the Pro Bono Committee at Debevoise & Plimpton LLP. Judge Gleeson will speak specifically to his leadership of the firm’s compassionate release work through the The Holloway Project. Over the past three-plus years, the firm has obtained sentence reductions for 46 inmates serving so-called “stacked” sentences imposed pursuant to 18 USC 924(c). The reductions average 35 years in length.

Lunch will be served!
