About the experience
Each year, the ISBA arranges a group swearing-in ceremony before the U.S. Supreme Court for Hoosier attorneys. This full-day experience brings ISBA members together in the heart of Washington D.C., where they can explore the city, be admitted into the U.S. Supreme Court, and even watch an oral argument before the highest judicial institution in the country.
The full experience includes breakfast, a group photo, a tour of the Supreme Court building, and the chance to observe an oral argument before the Court. Space is limited to the first 12 ISBA members who register. Applicants are allowed to bring one guest with them to the admission ceremony.
Each participant is responsible for securing their own travel and hotel arrangements. The ISBA cannot be held responsible for any cost you may incur in arranging for travel to the ceremony if the Court denies or delays your application or cancels the ceremony.
The experience typically occurs during the final quarter (Oct-Dec). Once a date has been secured, information will be made available, usually in the spring.
Please note: You must be a member to participate. Also, you must be admitted to practice for at least three years immediately before date of application. The U.S. Supreme Court has final discretion as to your eligibility.
