Congratulations to 2013 alumni M. Paula Briceno, Brittany M. Cambre and Crystal M. Johnson for their UGA Appellate Litigation Clinic work in representing a franchisee in his claim against his franchisor and its former chief executive officer. Johnson argued the case in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in front of a panel that included retired U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. The Fourth Circuit certified the case to the Virginia Supreme Court, where the clinic partnered with a major Virginia firm. The state's highest court answered both certified questions in the client's favor. The case likely will be remanded to district court for further proceedings. |
Congratulations to third-year student A. Warren Adegunle who recently won the Center for Alcohol Policy's 6th Annual Essay Contest, which is intended to foster debate, analysis and examination of state alcohol regulation. The essay topic concerned the 80th anniversary of the 21st Amendment and whether or not the amendment has achieved its intended purpose.
Congratulations to third-year law student G. Taylor Wilson and second-year student Andy Shin who were semifinalists in the Southeastern Regional Competition of the National Transactional LawMeet, which the law school hosted late last month. This competition is designed to give law students a hands-on experience in developing and honing transactional lawyering skills.
