Hurricane blows ABA to Chicago

Because the City of New Orleans may not be able to rehabilitate its convention facilities in time, the American Bar Association will relocate its 2006 midyear meeting to Chicago from Feb. 8 to 13, a week later than planned.

“It is just not possible to hold our meeting in New Orleans,” said ABA President Michael S. Greco. “The decision was made difficult because of our strong desire to help the economy of New Orleans at this time.” A Web site for the meeting will be available this month at www.abanet.org.
