Join JAMS and our attending neutrals at the California Judges Association (CJA) for the 2025 CJA Spring Conference. Formerly known as the Mid-Year/Retired Judges Conference, this annual event brings together judicial officers from across California for essential legal updates, educational sessions, and networking opportunities. The program covers key areas such as civil, criminal, family, probate, and evidence law, while also offering specialized sessions for new judges, those considering retirement, and retired judges involved in private judging or assignments.
Attendees will have the opportunity to earn MCLE and JBEC credits, participate in engaging discussions with experienced judges, and enjoy the scenic surroundings of Monterey. With expanded time for networking and relaxation, this conference blends tradition with fresh perspectives.
