JOINT MEETING PROGRAM DELEGATES


Statement of Support and Reimbursement Policy for Joint Meetings
Resolution Adopted by the Board of Directors at the Society's 2005 Annual Meeting

     When the Society co-sponsors an academic program with a Sponsor Member or another comparative law or other legal organization, the President (or other Society representative named by the President) shall first negotiate an arrangement with the co-sponsor about the scholarly and financial arrangements. The President is authorized to commit up to a maximum of $5,000 for a Society subsidy to support such a meeting, contingent on subsequent ratification by the Society's Board of Directors (or Executive Committee in extraordinary circumstances).

     Such financial support should normally be directed first toward financing the attendance of Society member delegates or participants. The maximum reimbursement would be $600 for a meeting within the United States and $1,000 abroad. Society representatives are encouraged to look for reimbursement from their home institutions before relying on the Society's reimbursement. After this priority is met, a balance from the authorized subsidy may be used to cover other program costs associated with attracting comparative law scholars to the meeting. The co-sponsor will submit such a statement detailing expenses to the Treasurer prior to payment.
