    April 28, 2014 2014 Burton Award Winner TJSL Alumnus Robert M. Sagerian ‘13 is the 2014 Burton Award winner for Legal Achievement for his distinguished legal writing. “I’m really at a loss for words,” said Sagerian. “It's truly an honor and incredibly rewarding just to be considered for such a prestigious award. Advocating for those in need is my passion, my calling in the legal profession.” Sagerian was selected in the law student category for his note titled “A Penalty Flag for Preemption: The NFL Concussion Litigation, Tortious Fraud, and the Steel Curtain Defense of Section 301 of the Labor Management Relations act,” published in the Fall 2013, edition of the Thomas Jefferson Law Review. This year, the Burton Awards selection committee handed out 15 law student awards from among all of the nation’s law schools. Sagerian will be honored for his article at an awards ceremony and dinner at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C., on June 9. “Robert joins a distinguished group of TJSL winners of this award,” said Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Linda Keller. “It is wonderful to see the accomplishments of our students recognized in this way.” The Burton Awards, now in its 15th year, was established by William C. Burton to promote and reward the refine- ment and enrichment of good legal writing and the achievement of legal reform. Winners are chosen by a committee consisting of educators from the law schools of Harvard University, Columbia University and Stanford University, as well as leading members of the legal profession and the judiciary.

  • In the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division
    Case: 1:19-cv-02727 Document #: 28 Filed: 07/19/19 Page 1 of 9 PageID #:335 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS EASTERN DIVISION OLABINJO OSUNDAIRO and ABIMBOLA OSUNDAIRO, Individually, Case No. 19-cv-2727 Plaintiffs, v. Honorable Matthew F. Kennelly MARK GERAGOS, TINA GLANDIAN, and GERAGOS & GERAGOS LAW FIRM, Defendants. MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF THE DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR SANCTIONS UNDER RULE 11 INTRODUCTION Plaintiffs have blatantly violated Fed. R. Civ. P. 11 by falsely asserting the source of an allegedly defamatory statement, by grossly mischaracterizing a defendant’s statements, and by pursuing a claim for respondeat superior that is not warranted by existing law. Plaintiffs attributed the statement about Plaintiffs’ bodybuilding techniques to Jussie Smollett’s lawyer, Tina Glandian, knowing that it was their own lawyer, Gloria Schmidt, who uttered it to the media.1 Also, in their zeal to drag a well-known lawyer into the case, Plaintiffs mischaracterized Mark Geragos’ statements, and their allegations against him are unfounded in fact. Finally, in an effort to dig into the pockets of Ms. Glandian’s law firm with their frivolous lawsuit, Plaintiffs filed an improper separate claim for respondeat superior. Unfortunately for Plaintiffs, the Illinois Supreme Court and this Court have determined that respondeat superior is not a separate cause of action. Defendants seek an order dismissing Plaintiffs’ baseless claims with prejudice and 1 Ms. Schmidt represents Plaintiffs in this matter. Case: 1:19-cv-02727 Document #: 28 Filed: 07/19/19 Page 2 of 9 PageID #:335 requiring Plaintiffs and their counsel to pay Defendants’ reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred in bringing this motion.

  • How Can California Increase the Diversity of the Legal Profession and the Judiciary?
    How Can California Increase the Diversity of the Legal Profession and the Judiciary? An Informational Hearing of the Assembly Committee on Judiciary and the Asian Pacific Islander, Black, and Latino Legislative Caucuses of the California Legislature Background Paper By the Staff of the Assembly Judiciary Committee I. Introduction A workforce that reflects the diversity of our society has been shown to not only be more fair by offering more opportunity for all, but also to be a more effective workforce. Diversity of the legal profession is especially important because it provides access to our justice system and our democratic institutions, as well. Unfortunately, the legal profession is consistently among the least diverse professions. Nationwide, a shocking 88 percent of the legal profession is white. In California, the legal profession and judiciary falls far short of adequately representing the demographic makeup of the state. Despite years of concerted effort to diversify the legal profession, little has changed. In order to achieve the goal to have California’s bench and bar reflect the diversity of our state and provide opportunity and justice for all, dramatic changes to state policies and priorities will be required. This paper looks at why such changes are needed, and which programs and policies appear to be most promising to address the issue. Section II of this paper discusses the importance of diversity for the legal profession; Part III discusses just how diverse the legal profession and the judiciary are today; Part IV explains the underlying causes of the lack of diversity; and Part V reviews existing programs to increase diversity.
