A federal appeals court panel will begin a

week of hearings tomorrow (Monday) at the University of Mississippi

where they also will spend time with law school students and

faculty.

The three-judge panel from the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals

has 13 cases scheduled for argument Monday through Thursday at the

Law Center on campus in Oxford.

Since the mid-1980s, the 5th Circuit has taken its hearings on

the road to law schools throughout its three-state circuit of

Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas.
