Dear friends, family, and fellow legal professionals,
My busy and productive spring has rolled into the summer and I am spending this summer working at the New Orleans law firm of Usry, Weeks & Matthews. While living at home this summer, I have continued to network and involve myself in the greater community.
This past spring, I clerked with the US Attorney's Office in Baton Rouge, competed with LSU's trial advocacy team, started a chapter of the Jewish Law Students' Association, and helped raise nearly $1,500 to support arts education in Louisiana schools through the George Rodrigue Foundation for the Arts (http://www.georgerodriguefoundation.org/site.php).
Loyola University Chicago Law Review recently published Judge Rosenthal's article that I helped contribute research towards during my time clerking for her in Houston. The article is entitled "The Summary Judgment Changes that Weren't" and I am proud to say that a few of my few footnotes appear scattered throughout the article. I have attached a copy for those who would like to read it. My own article on the NBA labor dispute, published in the Louisiana Bar Journal, was republished at http://www.mediate.com//articles/FinkelsteinM2.cfm.
Finally, I have launched my photography site at http://illegalphotography.smugmug.com/. Please stop by my regular website as well, as I have committed myself to more frequently updating my blog http://michaelfinkelstein.weebly.com/. Thank you all for your continued support and please feel free to share my emails with others who may be interested. Best wishes and safe travels this summer.
Sincerely,
Michael Finkelstein
