FORUM ON FRANCHISING'S RISING SCHOLAR AWARD
The
deadline for the Rising Scholar Award is six months away, but it's not too
early to start-or to encourage your eligible associates to submit an article.
To be eligible, entrants must be members of the ABA Forum on Franchising and zero to four years out of law school. Qualified participants should prepare articles according to Franchise Law Journal author guidelines. The due date is July 14, 2014. The submissions will be judged by current and former members of the Franchise Law Journal and The Franchise Lawyer editorial boards. The current Forum chair will also be consulted and provide input on the selection of the winning article.
The
author of the winning article will receive the following: (1) the article will
be considered for publication in a future edition of Franchise Law Journal; (2)
the author will be recognized and presented with a plaque at the Annual Forum
on Franchising; (3) the author will receive a small financial award to
reimburse in part expenses for traveling to the Annual Forum for the award
presentation; and (4) the author's registration fee for attending the Annual
Forum will be waived.
Articles
must be submitted to Bethany L. Appleby, the current Editor-in-Chief of the
Franchise Law Journal, by no later than Monday, July 14, 2014, to be considered
in this year's competition. All inquiries about the competition should be
directed to: bappleby@wiggin.com.
