With support from the U.S. Department of State, the CEELI Institute held a Judicial Roundtable in Prague from July 6-8, 2011 for the Presidents and Chief Justices of Supreme Courts in Central and Eastern Europe, and also from the United States, represented by John Roberts, Chief Justice of the U.S. This unique conference gave the Justices a space to discuss common issues of vital importance to their courts. It was so successful that a follow-up conference is planned for next spring.
