Only one week left of class. This year seems to have flown by.

During the first semester, it seems all I did was write for law review. This semester, my case note was published in the Wyoming Law Review. If your heart desires, you can read a copy here. The Supreme Court ended up reversing the Tenth Circuit, which means my analysis ultimately proved correct. Yay. This year’s editorial board also selected me to serve as a Case Note Editor for next year. Yay, again.

As always, I competed in a couple of competitions this semester. Two friends of mine, April Christensen and Marca Tanner, bested my team in the finals of the Second Annual Honorable Robert R. Rose Voir Dire Competition. [Learn more about the voir dire competition.]

Just last week was the Brown, Drew & Massey Moot Court Competition. My team this year included Ryan Ford, Jodi Shea, and me. (Ryan and I have been teammates for all the competitions, and Jodi beat us two years in a row in the Client Counseling Competition.) We got to argue the finals in front of the Wyoming Supreme Court (all five justices) in their new fancy courtroom. It was awesome!

In the end, the Petitioners (Brian Healy, Kerry Luck-Torry, and Justin Daraie) won the final round, going undefeated all week.

As soon as finals are over, I’ll be heading over to Cheyenne, where I’ll be working for Kelly Rankin, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Wyoming.
