Colorado Gets Civil-ized! Panel - Mar. 27

 

Civil Unions CO Civil Unions are on the path to implementation and you probably want to know what that will mean for you before you pop the question to your current amour. Don't worry, we can help with that. On March 27 at 5:30 come to the Abrams Lounge, 3rd floor of the Center for Community on CU-Boulder Campus for a "best educated guess" on how this will implemented and some of the potential implications. We are excited to have Larry Hoyt, a local attorney who has been in private practice and in government for over 35 years and Jodi Martin founding member of Martin Law Office LLC, and a practicing attorney for over 15 years presenting with their combined 50 years of legal expertise.
 
We will hold a second panel in April to cover the federal marriage challenge in the United States Supreme Court. Sign up for the Out Boulder eNewsletter to be kept current on this and other future presentations.
