Ray Brescia, Visiting Clinical Associate Professor of Law at Yale University, currently on leave from Albany Law, will discuss recent developments in “Reverse Redlining” litigation in the wake of the financial crisis.

Shelby Green, Associate Professor at Pace Law School, will discuss Italian Cowboy Partners, Ltd. v. The Prudential Ins., Co. of Am., 341 S.W.3d 323 (Tex. 2011).  In this case, the court considered whether disclaimer-of-representations language in a lease contract precludes a fraud in the inducement claim.
