Faculty
Professor Joëlle Anne Moreno joins us from Hofstra University School of Law (where she was a Visiting Professor from 2006-2007) and from the New England School of Law (where she was a full-time member of the faculty from 1999-2006, and was tenured and promoted to Full Professor of Law in 2005). Professor Moreno is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania Law School, Swarthmore College, and perhaps most importantly to a native New Yorker, Stuyvesant High School. Before beginning her academic career, she served as a federal prosecutor for the United States Department of Justice in the Litigation Section of the Antitrust Division. Professor Moreno is an experienced teacher of Evidence, Scientific and Forensic Evidence, Criminal Procedure, Criminal Law, Criminal Advocacy, and Alternative Dispute Resolution. She is a prolific scholar whose work has focused primarily on evidence and criminal justice issues. Professor Moreno’s most recent theoretical work explores the impact of anti empiricism on science based legal controversies. However, as a firm believer that academic work should have real world application, she has also examined problems that include the use and misuse of police officers as expert witnesses and the admissibility of certain types of scientific testimony in child abuse cases. Professor Moreno has presented her work at academic conferences at Yale Law School, the University of Houston’s Criminal Justice Institute, Seton Hall University School of Law, Michigan State - Detroit College of Law, among other law schools, and at venues outside the ivory tower, including recent annual meetings of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and the Society for Pediatric Radiology.
