The Nassau County Women’s Bar Association Proudly Presents:

A Supreme Study in Scandal: The Rise & Fall of Abe Fortas

Join us for a fascinating presentation on the rise and fall of Abe Fortas - a remarkably gifted lawyer whose fall from prominence was swift, but whose life ultimately speaks to the intersection of law and ethics. 

Ethics CLE credits are pending approval.

 Abe Fortas was:

  • a member of the U.S. Supreme Court;

  • an unsuccessful nominee for the position of Chief Justice;

  • the first justice to resign from the Court under public pressure;

  • born in Memphis to Orthodox Jewish immigrants;

  • rose from humble origins to the very center of legal and political power in the US.
