The Honorable Ralph K. Winter, Jr., Senior Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, will deliver the second annual address of the Fred Dunbar Memorial Lecture in Law and Economics at Fordham Law School on 3 April 2014. Judge Winter's lecture is entitled "The Limits on the Use of Economics in Law." The annual lecture was established to honor Dr. Fred Dunbar's pioneering role in securities litigation: raising the standard for economists' expert testimony from one comfortable with subjective opinion to one emphasizing objective, scientifically-based analysis. Fordham Law School is hosting the series in conjunction with NERA, the firm that Dr. Dunbar called home for three decades and whose Securities and Finance Practice he founded. Dr. Dunbar passed away in February 2012. Judge Winter was appointed US Circuit Judge for the Second Circuit in 1981 by President Reagan, served as Chief Judge of the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit from 1997 to 2000, and assumed senior status on 1 October 2000. Prior to entering judicial service, Judge Winter was the William K. Townsend Professor of Law at Yale Law School.
