2L Justin "Richard" Cabral Selected for Hispanic National Bar Association's 14th Annual Intellectual Property Law Institute

California Western School of Law congratulates 2L Justin "Richard" Cabral on his selection to the Hispanic National Bar Association's 14th Annual Intellectual Property Law Institute (IPLI), an intensive, weeklong program that took place this summer in Washington, D.C.   

Cabral was one of only 26 law students chosen nationwide, representing California Western among 22 law schools.

Participants in the Hispanic National Bar Association's 14th Annual Intellectual Property Law Institute gather at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, D.C. 

IPLI provides aspiring attorneys opportunities to engage with federal judges, senior government officials, top IP practitioners, and industry leaders through presentations, panel discussions, and visits to key institutions, including the Supreme Court of the United States, the U.S. Copyright Office, the Federal Trade Commission, the United States International Trade Commission, and the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
