Extrajudicial killings are a crime that is often under-discussed among practitioners and scholars, even though it has become a crime that is being repeatedly perpetrated in various contexts around the world. This session will discuss the contours of extrajudicial killing within the US legal system and how attorneys can find avenues to assist with litigating cases. The session will also explore the ongoing situation in the Islamic Republic of Iran and how extrajudicial killing can mutate and take new forms through
different processes.

Danielle Gardner, International Criminal Law Committee, International Law Section.
Speakers:
• William Joseph Aceves, Chief Justice Roger Traynor Professor of Law, California Western School of Law.
