Congratulations to the top 8 finalists in HGD’s 7th Annual Closing Argument Competition 2023, “In Summation.” The eight finalists who will be competing for the top three spots this week are Suleida Brown, Hudson Chastain, Katie Goodin, Hannah Maynor, Bryant Odom, Jacob Powell, and Grayson Walden.

Heninger Garrison Davis takes great pride in this event and the learning opportunity it provides for students attending Cumberland School of Law and Birmingham School of Law. Our goal is to encourage advocacy and reward those law students for advancing their advocacy skills.

Each participant was given a trial problem and asked to present a closing argument before a mock jury that included judges, lawyers, and laypersons. The final round is Wednesday, October 4 in the Stephen D. Heninger Moot Court Room in our downtown Birmingham office.

The prizes for the top three are:
1st Place will receive $1,000 & an engraved plaque

2nd Place will receive a check for $750 & an engraved plaque

3rd Place will receive a check for $500 & an engraved plaque

Good luck to all our finalists!
