Interpreting State Constitutions

from FedSoc Events Hosted by The Federalist Society

On May 7, 2021, the Federalist Society's Ohio lawyers chapters hosted the 2021 Ohio Chapters Conference in Columbus, OH. The first panel covered "Interpreting State Constitutions." How should state constitutions be interpreted? Should terms that mirror those in the U.S. Constitution be interpreted coterminously? This panel explores varying approaches to interpreting state constitutions, as well as the similarities and differences between the interpretation of state constitutions and the U.S. Constitution. Opening Remarks: Judge Matthew R. Byrne, Ohio Court of Appeals, Twelfth District Featuring: Judge Sharon Kennedy, Ohio Supreme Court Judge Clint Bolick, Arizona Supreme Court Larry Obhof, Former President of the Ohio Senate; Partner, Shumaker, Loop & Kendrick LLP Moderator: Judge Jeffrey S. Sutton, United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit ******* As always, the Federalist Society takes no position on particular legal or public policy issues; all expressions of opinion are those of the speakers.
