As the coronavirus spreads, law firms and legal industry organizations have continued to announce changes and cancellations of long-planned events that would have involved domestic or international travel for many.
The American Bar Association and its Criminal Justice Section on Wednesday canceled the 34th National Institute on White Collar Crime, scheduled for next week in San Diego. The organization said it made the change because of travel restrictions placed on a significant number of speakers and attendees by their employers.
The Legal Marketing Association, meanwhile, said Wednesday that it will decide by next week if its annual conference will go on as scheduled. It is currently planned for March 25 to 27 in Denver.
