Regularly during the school year, the Dean hosts roundtable discussions with prominent guests who have utilized their law degrees in a variety of nontraditional ways. Over lunch with a small group of students, guests speak autobiographically about their work experiences, sharing valuable insight about how they found their chosen path. Please note that the roundtables are informal and off-the-record.

Ariel Makov LLM ’96, who will be the Dean’s guest on Thursday, October 1, is CEO and co-founder of Orange Blossom Ventures Ltd., a boutique venture capital firm based in Tel-Aviv, Israel specializing in investments in startups and early stage companies. In addition to his role as CEO, he also serves as a member of the Board of Directors. Mr. Makov earned his LLM from New York University School of Law in 1996, after receiving his LLB from Reading University, UK. He has been a member of the Israeli Bar since 1997 and the UK Law Society since 2005.

Before founding Orange Blossom Ventures, he worked as a corporate and investment attorney with Efrati, Galili & Co., a firm specializing in corporate law, technology, and licensing. Additionally, he was a visiting attorney with Hogan Lovells, formally known as Hogan & Hartson, in Washington, DC where he specialized in capital raising and technology licensing transactions. Prior to his role at Hogan Lovells, Mr. Makov was an associate at Mizrahi, Arnon & Makov, specializing in corporate and franchise law. Mr. Makov’s significant business experience includes investing in, and raising capital for, various growth companies in a broad range of industries as well as substantial expertise in facilitating private equity capital for growth companies. He also served as special adviser to the chairman of the Israeli Constitution Law & Justice Committee, Israeli Knesset, from 2004-2005.

The Dean’s roundtables are open to 18 interested NYU School of Law JD and graduate students. In order to achieve a representational mix of students, we will designate a proportionate number of seats to JD students and graduate students, respectively, to be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. The roundtables will begin at 12:30 PM in Snow Dining Room. If you would like to attend a roundtable, please sign up in advance by emailing Ken Seagreaves at ken.seagreaves@nyu.edu. Please indicate whether you are a JD or graduate student, and whether you have any dietary restrictions.

The Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot is a unique competition that is designed to foster an interest in, and develop the requisite skill set for, a successful career in the fields of international commercial law and international commercial arbitration. The competition provides an unparalleled personal and professional experience; students find that their participation in the Moot is not only academically enriching, but also a delightful cross-cultural experience before and in Hong Kong and Vienna.

Goals of the Moot – The objective of the Moot is to stimulate the study of international commercial law, especially UNCITRAL legal texts, and the use of international commercial arbitration to resolve international commercial disputes. It is a clinical exercise designed to train law students through two distinct, yet equally important, phases: the writing of memoranda for Claimant and Respondent and oral advocacy in a simulated arbitral setting. Both phases are adjudicated by prominent arbitration practitioners and scholars.

Structure of the Moot – The Moot involves a dispute arising out of a contract of sale between two nationals of states parties to the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (the CISG). Additional information about the Vienna situs of the competition is available at http://www.cisg.law.pace.edu/vis.html; information about the Hong Kong situs of the competition is available at http://www.cisgmoot.org/.

Prerequisites for Participation

• Both JDs and LL.M.s are eligible (1Ls will actively participate in the writing phase but are excused from the orals given the intensity of NYU’s workload in the first year; they may secure a spot on next year’s team);
• Strong interest in, and familiarity with, international commercial arbitration
• Basic knowledge of international arbitration, international sales law and business transactions, and/or conflict of laws (enrollment in applicable courses during the 2014-2015 academic year will be considered);
• Interest in written and oral advocacy; and
• Non-eligibility to practice law in your home jurisdiction (exceptions are made on a case-by-case basis).

Requirements of Moot Team Members

• Extensive legal research on international arbitration, international sales law, and conflict of laws;
• Preparation of legal memoranda on behalf of Claimant and Respondent;
• Considerable training in oral advocacy; and
• Oral arguments before panels of three arbitrators in either Hong Kong or Vienna.

Interested? Please send your resume and a short letter/email of interest by no later than September 29, 2015 via email to NYUVisMootTeam@gmail.com.

Meeting: Applicants will be invited as a group to meet with the coaching team and our faculty advisor, Prof. Franco Ferrari, at 6pm on October 1^st (Thursday) in FH334.

The focus will be on networking at events and the art of conversation.

Individuals who are current full-time 1L, 2L, LLM and JSD students are eligible to apply. For more information, see http://chrgj.org/opportunities/students/chrgj-international-human-rights-fellowship/.  The Fellowship has two major components: a 10-12 week internship in 2016, generally in the summer but in some cases in the fall, at one of many international organizations and a post-internship academic research paper. The list of ILHR program internship organizations is expected to include international tribunals (e.g. ICTY, ECCC, STL); UN organizations (e.g., ILC, UNHCR); international and national NGOs (e.g., groups in locations as diverse as Beijing, Bangkok, Bogotá, Buenos Aires, Dhaka, Jerusalem, Johannesburg, Kampala, London, New Delhi, Ramallah and Windhoek). The ILHR Fellowship application will be available on October 13 on the CHRGJ website (www.chrgj.org) and applications will be due by noon on Wednesday, November 11.

The IFD Fellowship Program is designed to provide students with the opportunity to gain experience working with international organizations engaged in the areas of finance, development and international law. Each Fellowship has two major components: a 10-12 week internship at a prominent international organization and an academic research paper. Participating organizations for 2015-2016 are: EBRD, IDLO, IFC, IISD, IMF, OECD, UN, and the World Bank. Students who are current full-time LLM students are eligible to apply.

Applicants to the IFD Fellowships can also elect on the application form to be considered for nominations for the World Bank Legal Analyst Program (LAP). NYU School of Law puts forward up to two nominations per Term of Reference for LAP each year, but does not guarantee the success of the nominations, nor award any financial support to successful applicants. The LAP nomination process is open to students with a minimum of one year and no more than two years of work experience post legal education. LAP positions are paid three-year term appointments with the Legal Vice Presidency.

International Court of Justice Clerkship

NYU School of Law was the first American law school to initiate a clerkship program with the International Court of Justice in 2000. Graduating students and recent graduates are eligible to apply. The Public Interest Law Center selects a shortlist of students or alumni with strong international law knowledge and proficiency in both English and French to work for nine or ten months in The Hague. The clerk selected by the ICJ will work with international judges, conduct legal research, draft memoranda and listen to oral arguments on issues in public international law. The deadline for applications has not been determined, but is expected to be in January 2016.

Arthur Helton Global Human Rights Fellowship

This annual fellowship supports one or more graduating students (JD or LLM) who have demonstrated a commitment to pursuing a career in international human rights law, and who have designed sound proposals for work at a host organization of their choice. Applicants are invited to design projects to put their legal education to work on timely issues in countries where their efforts are most needed and where there are insufficient resources for human rights protection. The fellowship provides a modest salary for one year and covers health insurance and travel costs for graduates to work closely with their chosen host organization. The deadline for applications is February 17, 2016.

The New York Court of Appeals has amended the supervision requirement for the 50-hour pro bono rule. Until recently, in order to qualify under the rule, attorneys supervising pro bono work had to be admitted to practice “in the jurisdiction where the work is performed.” This meant that certain types of pro bono work were automatically disqualified, such as:
