Things to Do…...

It‟s the Birthplace of Rock „n‟ Roll, the Home of the Blues and the starting point of soul. Music legends including Elvis

Presley, Johnny Cash, B.B. King, W.C. Handy and Otis Redding made their marks on Memphis, where you can hear

their influences today. To complete the “musical medley,” visit Graceland, Sun Studio, the Stax Museum of American

Soul Music and the Memphis Rock „n‟ Soul Museum. At night, take a walk down Beale Street and listen to the live music

Memphis makes today. We hope while you here, you can visit some of our wonderful tourist attractions.

THE BELZ MUSEUM OF ASIAN & JUDAIC ART: FREE TOUR throughout the duration of

the seminar. The FBA ILS will be offering a free tour of The Belz Museum of Asian & Judaic Art.

the specialty food in the world. Art galleries, t-shirts, good music, getting your fortune told, strange cargo, you

name it and Beale St. probably has it. Be sure to join us on our group outing Saturday evening beginning at

NOTICE: All registrations are subject to acceptance. Registrations received without proper payment will be returned.

Registrations are not transferable and cannot be split among seminar attendees. Hardship financial scholarships may be

All licensed Attorneys and their Paralegal/Legal Assistants are welcome to attend. The FBA will request CLE credit for

Tennessee and other states where there have been substantial prior attendees. Attorneys can receive a maximum of up to

14.5 hours; between 11 – 14.5 of General and between 0 - 3 Dual (Ethics) in Tennessee (129385). Participants must com-

plete an FBA Certificate of Attendance which will be provided to the participant on the day of the CLE course. If your

state is not pre-approved by the FBA then you must submit your Certificate of Attendance to your own state for CLE cred-

it. Each session may be professionally recorded for distribution in an MP3 or CD format at the discretion of the FBA.

Attorney CLE Registration fees range between $400-$500 in advance of the event if paid prior to April 1, 2013. After that

date or at the door, Attorney CLE registration fees range between $450-$600 per Attorney. Paralegals are welcome and

may register at a rate between $275-$400 per Paralegal/Legal Assistant of Licensed Attorney. Pro Bono or Non Profit At-

torneys and Staff have a special flat rate of $200-$400 (with proof of certain pro bono obligations). Government Employ-

ee may register at a rate between $200 - $300. A limited number of Federal CJA Panel members and Federal Public

Defenders can attend at no charge, after applying for a fee waiver in writing with WD-TN Federal Court Clerk,

Tom Gould @ 167 N. Main Street, Room 200, Memphis, TN 38103 by April 1, 2013. Other FBA ILS scholarships

may be available in extraordinary circumstances where appropriate financial hardship is demonstrated.

SAME DAY REGISTRATIONS: Same Day Registrations will be accepted based on availability. Make your res-

ervations now! Hotel rooms are very limited during this weekend due to the Memphis In May BBQ Festival. See
