Dominick L. DiCarlo U.S. Court of International Trade Lecture

Dominick L. DiCarlo U.S. Court of International Trade Lecture

Each year, the Center for International Law hosts a judge of the U.S. Court of International Trade or the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit to lecture on a topic that addresses the role of the federal courts play in shaping and litigating customs and trade law disputes. Named to honor the Hon. Dominick L. DiCarlo, a former Chief Judge of the U.S Court of International Trade, the first formal lecture was held in 2003.

Previous lecture topics include “Designating Non-Market Economies Under U.S. Trade Laws: Can There Be a Free Market Economy Where There Is No Free Marketplace of Ideas?,” “Trade Adjustment Assistance: The Human Face of the Court of International Trade,” and “Litigating Customs and Trade Disputes 30 Years after the Customs Courts Act of 1980 and the Effect of Judicial Review in the Future.”

About Hon. Dominick L. DiCarlo

Dominick Leonard DiCarlo (March 11, 1928 – April 27, 1999) was nominated by President Ronald Reagan to the U.S. Court of International Trade in 1984 and served on the Court until 1999. He was appointed Chief Judge by President George H.W. Bush in 1991 and served in that capacity until 1996. Before his service on the Court, he served as Assistant Secretary of State for International Narcotics Matters from 1981-1984 and was a member of the New York State Assembly from 1965-1981.

During his service to the U.S. Court of International Trade, three graduates of the Law School clerked with Judge DiCarlo:

  • Professor Mark E. Wojcik (JD 1986) from 1987-1989
  • Lawrence M. Friedman (JD 1989/LLM 2001) from 1989-1991
  • Cole S. Kain (JD 1990) from 1991-1993
