LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — The Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court will be in Lincoln next week to deliver the keynote address at the Roman L. Hruska Institute for the Administration of Justice.

Chief Justice John Roberts’ appearance will be Friday at the University of Nebraska College of Law. Roberts will participate in a public conversation with William Jay Riley, chief judge of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Roberts joins a number of other justices who’ve spoken at the institute. Justice Clarence Thomas spoke in 2011, and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg spoke at the Law College in 2006.

The Hruska Institute was created in 1995 to educate lawyers, law students and the public-at-large in Nebraska on the importance of administering justice at the federal level.
