The scholarship will award up to two recipients $10,000 each and is open to current first-year (1L) law students who plan to continue full-time enrollment at an ABA-accredited law school for their second (2L) academic year. Applicants should also have a demonstrated interest in representing defendants in civil litigation matters.
