DePaul success at Beijing Moot Court Competition
Congratulations to DePaul’s Moot Court team of Anne Fan (’12), David Golub (’12), Robert Hoekstra (’12), Russell Tanguay (’11) at the Third BFSU--Wanhuida Cup Intellectual Property Moot Court International Competition that was hosted by the Beijing Foreign Studies University Law School on May 22-23, 2010. The competition worked a little differently than most moot court competitions in that each competing team wrote a brief on behalf of both the Petitioner and the Respondent in the problem. Fourteen teams competed in this international competition and DePaul’s Petitioner brief ranked 3rd and the Respondent brief ranked 5th. The team placed sixth overall. In addition, Russell was awarded the “Best Oralist” award, the highest achievement for oral advocacy in the competition, while Robert was acknowledged with one of four "Outstanding Oralist” awards that recognized other excellent performances. Professor Alberto Coll was the team’s mooting coach before and at the competition, and the team was coached on the briefs by Professors Craig Boise, Matthew Sag, and Joshua Sarnoff.

Congratulations to Professor Sag
Professor Matt Sag spoke at the recent "Copyright@300" conference celebrating the 300th anniversary of the enactment of the Statute of Anne, the world's first copyright act. The conference was sponsored by the Copyright Society of the USA and hosted by the Berkeley Center for Law & Technology, in conjunction with the High Tech Law Institute of Santa Clara University Law School. The conference was a veritable who's who of copyright scholars in the United States. His presentation on the history of the fair use doctrine was very well received.
