Gibson Dunn Legal Lunch
At Susser Bank, we believe that strong communities grow from informed conversations, and last week, we were honored to host one that truly stood out.
Our CEO, Sam L. Susser, has always been in awe of the wisdom of the framers of our Constitution. Though he didn’t attend law school, his curiosity about constitutional law and the Supreme Court runs deep. So, when Gibson Dunn agreed to bring several of the country’s leading constitutional thinkers to Old Parkland in Dallas, we knew it would be something special.
We were honored to welcome an exceptional group for a thought-provoking discussion:
- Rob Walters: Former Executive Committee and Dallas Partner-in-Charge at Gibson Dunn
- Stephen Hammer: Senior Associate in the Dallas office of Gibson Dunn and a member of the firm’s Appellate and Constitutional Law and Administrative Law and Regulatory Practice Groups and former clerk to Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr. of the U.S. Supreme Court, Judge Gregory G. Katsas of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, and Judge Jeffrey S. Sutton of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit
- The Honorable James C. Ho: former Gibson Dunn partner, current Circuit Judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit and former clerk to Judge Jerry E. Smith of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and Justice Clarence Thomas of the U.S. Supreme Court
- Gregg Costa: Global Co-Chair of Trial Practice at Gibson Dunn, former Fifth Circuit Judge and former clerk to Chief Justice William Rehnquist
Their discussion covered some of the most pressing issues that will be decided in the current Supreme Court term, including tariffs, immigration and whether or not the President has the authority to remove the Chairman of the “so called” independent agencies.
Thank you to our distinguished speakers and our guests who asked so many thoughtful questions.
