This year’s final round was held on April 10, 2024, in the Lubar Center.

Thank you to the law school administrators and staff who helped coordinate the event and to Dean Kearney for his support of the competition and his front-line presence as host. And special thanks to 3Ls Lauren Hudon and Isaiahs Luna, who flawlessly coordinated the details of the competition, from start to finish.

Students are selected to participate in the competition based on their success in the fall Appellate Writing and Advocacy class at the Law School.
