Hogan/Smoger Access to Justice Essay Contest

The 2012 Hogan/Smoger Access to Justice Essay Contest was established in 1970 by the prominent environmental lawyer, the late Roscoe B. Hogan of Birmingham, Alabama, and served to provide law students the opportunity to investigate and offer solutions to the multitude of injustices inflicted on the environment.  The Hogan/Smoger Access to Justice Essay Contest has a broader scale by focusing on whether and how the courts can be used to obtain justice, including for injuries to the environment.

The contest is a $5,000 cash award given to the author of the winning essay.  The 2012 topic is: Are Factory Farms Hog-Tying People's Rights?

Essay submission deadline: March 31. 2012.  For more information about the contest, click HERE.
