News & Events

Congratulations to Steve Tensmeyer ’15, Andy Brewster ’15, and Sean Stefanik ’16, who all competed in the 2015 Orison S. Marden Moot Court Competition Final this evening! We are proud to note that Tensmeyer was honored for writing the best brief during the Spring semifinals. Stefanik, also the Law Review’s new Senior Articles Editor, received accolades for best brief during the Fall competition and was recognized as the best oralist of both the Fall and Spring competitions.

Congratulations to Articles Editor Jack Millman, Class of 2016, for publishing his piece, Gambling with Health Care, with the Ohio State University Law Review Online! Millman explores how low-income individuals could inflate their adjusted gross income using estimated gambling returns in order to qualify for Affordable Care Act subsidies in states opting against the Medicare expansion. In doing so, this novel analysis highlights the difficult position in which many low-income taxpayers find themselves and emphasizes the need for Congress to act. Download his article here.
