About
the Conference Beginning in 1978,
Monahan began arranging annual meetings of lawyers at the Tides Inn in
Irvington. At first a small and informal gathering known as the “Tides
Inn Conference,” the meeting eventually became a carefully planned
event for nearly 100 lawyers, professors and judges representing a wide
variety of practices throughout the Commonwealth. Later, the conference
was renamed the Boyd-Graves Conference in honor of the contributions of
revered law professors T. Munford Boyd and Edward S. Graves to the advancement
of Virginia’s civil procedure. Items are discussed at the Conference after they are studied by committees of Conference members. A steering committee meets twice during the year to plan the conference. |
