What is Going on With the Indiana Civil Rights Commission?

For several years, the Indiana Civil Rights Commission provided a low-cost, high quality and pretty much boredom free continuing legal education seminars. They have not done so in over a year. See the ICRC's Workshops, Conferences, and Continuing Legal Education page.

Other than missing a low-cost alternative for CLE in an area of law in which I practice, I have to wonder what the State is doing to keep their lawyers in their CLE hours. See, I noticed that most of the attendees were government lawyers.

But this also means that there ICRC hosts no workshops or conferences. Why not?

Very strange and I will attribute it to either some misguided idea of cost cutting or not getting information on their website.

  1. I'd sure like to know, too -- the certainly aren't enforcing the Fair Housing Act according to standards.

    The Deputy Director disappeared soemtime after December, and now suddenly Gregory Kellam Scott's April 4 'resignation' is announced in the April 15 press release covering the assignement of Tony Kirkland as the new Director.

    Take a look at my website/blog (http://acitizenprose.wordpress.com ), where I've begun to document the sub-standard case processing I've been subject to for over a year. And, if you go, please look at the Apr 17 entry (top enty, as I write) on the 'Posts(blog entries)' page (use link in sidebar). ICRC has just sent me a 'consent agreement' which they developed, without my knowledge or consent, in cooperation with the Respondent -- in other words acting as Respondent's attorney. Outrageous misuse of their authority and of taxpayer's dollars!
