Policy Practicum: Regilla Project: Women Convicted of Intimate Partner Violence-Related Homicides (809F): This practicum will prepare for, facilitate, and draw lessons from a multi-stakeholder Roundtable on the legal system's treatment of women accused of homicides that grow out of their experiences of intimate partner violence. The Stanford Criminal Justice Center issued a new report, Fatal Peril: Unheard Stories from the IPV-to-Prison Pipeline, in Summer 2024. On November 12, 2024, we will convene a diverse group of 25 California-based stakeholders -- researchers, advocates, prosecutors, defense attorneys, judges, corrections officials, and gubernatorial and legislative policymakers -- to brainstorm and develop a consensus-driven set of state-specific legal and policy recommendations in response to the findings of the report. Recommendations will address the continuum of the criminal legal system from law enforcement through parole. The Roundtable will take place at Stanford. Students will be involved in planning the Roundtable, including helping to set the agenda and developing background materials for Roundtable participants, and synthesizing the discussions and recommendations arising from the Roundtable into a Roundtable white paper issued by the Stanford Criminal Justice Center in 2025. Students will write background papers for Roundtable participants on discrete legal and policy issues; help set the Roundtable agenda and facilitate Roundtable discussions; synthesize Roundtable minutes; research promising practices; and help to draft a full Roundtable white paper with law and policy recommendations. During the Fall 2024 quarter, the policy lab will meet on Thursdays from 10:00-11:00 am. The Roundtable will take place on Tuesday, November 12 from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM and students enrolled in the policy lab will be expected to attend the entire event. One or two students may receive academic credit in Winter 2025 to finalize the white paper. Elements used in grading: Attendance, Performance, Class Participation, Written Assignments, Final Paper. Application process: Interested students should submit a Policy Lab application (go to link SLS Registrar https://registrar.law.stanford.edu/) and copy of their resume, transcript, and a one-page statement describing their interest and relevant experience by Friday, September 20 to Debbie Mukamal (dmukamal@law.stanford.edu).
