We are delighted to confirm that Mr Sumption will be speaking on "The law of illegality after Stone & Rolls" at 6.00pm in the Blue Boar Lecture Theatre, Christ Church. Please see the Termcard for more details. All are welcome.

Having taught tort (no pun intended), administrative, constitutional and family law at Christ Church for five years, Rachel Taylor is leaving our family of budding solicitors, barristers and potential academics of tomorrow. She has provided us with thought-provoking tutorials, constant support and advice throughout the years and will be missed greatly. We wish her and her family the best of luck for the future, and hope that she will stay in contact.

Congratulations to two Christ Church law students, Patrick Dunn-Walsh and James Smithdale for successfully making it to the finals of the Gray's Inn Moot Competition. The final took place in the beautiful building of Gray's Inn in London.

James Smithdale was awarded the joint winner of the competition and Patrick Dunn-Walsh was awarded the runner-up. We would like to congratulate them on their success.
