SDIPLA Committee
SDIPLA has created the Amicus, Editorial, Events and Awards, Mentoring, and Sponsorship committees to improve its services and allow greater participation in the organization's administration. The
response has been very good so far, and the current
committee membership is reproduced below. The Board
encourages all members with an interest in serving
on a committee to volunteer. Please contact the Secretary if you are interested in serving on any
of these committees.

and submission by the Board in intellectual property cases of interest to
the membership.
EDITORIAL COMMITTEE - Assists the Board in compiling,
communicating and distributing SDIPLA's newsletter,

social events (not MCLE-qualified seminars), such
