The last two weekends have been busy ones for the students competing in the Jenkins Honors Moot Court Competition. Each team argued four times the weekend of March 20-21 in the preliminary rounds<\/a> to determine which teams would advance to the quarterfinal round.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, March 27, the eight teams that advanced argued to see which would advance to the semifinals.<\/p>\n

After some very close rounds, four teams moved on to the semifinals. Those four teams were:<\/p>\n

Alexandra (Sasha) Chepov & Zak Wroblewski;
\nBen Edelstein & Kyle Frank;
\nLauren Brasington & Carsyn Bushman;
\nAlexander Lux & Natalie Mulvey<\/p>\n

These four teams competed on Sunday, March 28. The two teams that emerged as finalists are:<\/p>\n

Ben Edelstein & Kyle Frank
\nAlexander Lux & Natalie Mulvey<\/p>\n

Congratulations to the finalists, and thank you to the many alumni and area attorneys who helped with the competition by grading briefs or judging oral arguments. Thanks, too, to the law school’s tech department and to Steve Nelson who kept this weekend’s virtual competition glitch-free.<\/p>\n

The final round of the competition will be held virtually on Tuesday, April 6, at 3:30 PM, and will be lived streamed on YouTube.<\/p>\n

The final round will be judged by The Honorable Michael Y. Scudder (U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit), The Honorable Paul Thissen (Minnesota Supreme Court), and The Honorable Cynthia M. Davis (L\u201906) (Milwaukee County Circuit Court).<\/p>\n

The Jenkins Completion is named in honor of the late James G. Jenkins, the first Wisconsin judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit (1893-1905) and the first dean of Marquette Law School (1908-1915).<\/p>\n
