RESERVATIONS/CANCELLATIONS FOR LIVE EVENTS.  To ensure the utmost accuracy in our reservation records, the Indianapolis Bar Association cannot accept reservations over the phone for CLE seminars, luncheons, or other programming. Reservations must be delivered or mailed to the Indianapolis Bar Association office or e-mailed to iba@indybar.org. Reservations received less than 24 hours prior to an event and walk-in registrations cannot be guaranteed; they will be accepted on a space-available basis, will include an additional $5 charge, and may not include lunch. Cancellations must be made in writing 48 hours prior to the program to receive a refund. If no cancellation is received, payment is due in full. For arrangements due to physical disability, please call the Indianapolis Bar Association at (317) 269-2000.

RESERVATIONS/CANCELLATIONS FOR ONLINE COURSES.  Your purchase provides a 30 day access from the time of purchase to view and complete the educational requirements of the Indiana CLE Commission.  Failure to complete the online course within 30 days will require you to re-enroll and purchase again in order to view and complete the education program.

NOTE: CLE credit will not be reported to the Indiana Supreme Court Commission for Continuing Legal Education (CLE Commission) until payment for the course has been received in full.  The CLE Commission will not approve online CLE credit if you previously received credit for the same live course.  It is your responsibility to monitor your credits.

OWNERSHIP AND USE OF IMAGES AND OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.  All registrants, instructors, exhibitors and guests attending any Indianapolis Bar Association event acknowledge and agree (a) that they may be photographed and/or video-recorded during such event, (b) that any such photographs or recordings are solely the property of the Indianapolis Bar Association, and (c) that the Association may publish, duplicate, and otherwise use such photographs, recordings, and identifying information about the persons in the photographs and recordings to promote the Association and its services.

COVID-19.  While choosing to participate in events held or sponsored by the Indianapolis Bar Association and/or Foundation (IndyBar), consistent with CDC guidelines, participants are encouraged to practice hand hygiene and social distancing to reduce the risks of exposure to COVID-19. Because COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is spread mainly from person-to-person contact, the IndyBar has put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19, including requiring masks in large, indoor group settings except when eating or drinking. Even so, the IndyBar cannot guarantee that its participants, volunteers, sponsors or others in attendance will not become infected with COVID-19.  Also, in keeping with CDC recommendations, those eligible are encouraged to receive the vaccine to support the health and well-being of the general public. 

Participants, volunteers and sponsors agree to self-monitor for signs and symptoms of COVID-19 (symptoms typically include fever, cough, and shortness of breath) and contact the IndyBar at iba@indybar.org if experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 within 14 days after participating or volunteering with the IndyBar.
