Catherine White

Catherine White is the winner of the 2014 Best Brief Competition, sponsored by UW Law School's Legal Research and Writing Program. The Best Brief Competition is an annual event to recognize outstanding legal writing by first-year students.

White wrote her winning appellate brief in the spring 2014 Legal Research and Writing II course. The competition involves three separate evaluation stages. First, LRW faculty select the best among students' appellate briefs. Next, a panel of Wisconsin lawyers evaluate the semi-finalists’ briefs and choose the finalists. The finalists’ briefs are then judged independently by a panel of law school faculty, who determine the winner.

Stephanie Command, Patrick DuBois and Kelsey O’Gorman were finalists in the 2014 competition.
