Conversation with AFPD Matthew Wright
Join UMN ACS, the Gun Violence Prevention Clinic, and the Criminal Justice League for a conversation with Assistant Federal Public Defender Matthew Wright. Wright argued his first case at the United States Supreme Court last term, representing Zackey Rahimi in United States v. Rahimi, a major Second Amendment case. We'll discuss how recent Supreme Court gun cases have affected his work as a public defender, how gun laws affect his clients, and how he prepared for his first argument at the Court.
