Dr. Jessica Bregant - Settlementality: Public Perceptions of Legal Settlement

Wednesday, February 26, 2025

12:15 pm - 1:15 pm

While popular depictions of civil lawsuits tend to focus on courtroom dramatics, the truth is that most cases never go to trial. Instead, they are resolved through private settlement agreements. The details of these settlements are often kept secret, leaving observers to draw their own conclusions about the underlying controversies. This talk explores the inferences that members of the public make when cases settle. Please click here to join the event virtually.
