U.S. Department of State Advisory Committee on Private 
International Law: Notice of Annual Meeting

    The Department of State's Advisory Committee on Private 
International Law (ACPIL) will hold its annual meeting on developments 
in private international law on Thursday, September 22 and Friday, 
September 23, 2011, in Washington, DC. The meeting will be held at the 
Gewirz Student Center, Georgetown University Law Center, 600 New Jersey

9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Thursday and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday.
    Time permitting, we expect that the discussion will focus on 
developments in a number of areas, e.g., international family law; 
electronic commerce; regional inter-American issues; U.S. federalism 
issues in implementing private international law conventions; and 
current activities relating to private international law in various 
international and domestic organizations. We also intend to solicit 
proposals for new work in the PIL field. We encourage active 
participation by all those attending.
