Oregon Supreme Court, wary of UO Law profs and students, cancels annual visit to Law School

A generally reliable source passes on this snippet from an email apparently sent to all UO Law students:

I regret to inform you that Oregon Law, in consultation with the Oregon Supreme Court, has changed its plan for tomorrow’s scheduled oral arguments.

In light of the large number of attendees and the planned participation of individuals in high-risk populations, we have made the difficult decision to modify certain aspects of the event.  The Court will hear arguments in Salem, while students will watch live via webcast (http://oregoncourts.mediasite.com/mediasite/Catalog/catalogs/default) or later via recording.  Following each argument, the justices will answer questions submitted in advance by Oregon Law students.  In addition, out of an abundance of caution, the Lane County Bar Association luncheon that was to follow oral arguments has been cancelled.

We look forward to hosting the Supreme Court and the local bar on campus again next year.
