The 2017 Van Vleck finals will feature 3Ls Sarah Cornwell (McLeod-Warrick) & Brittany Crosby, representing the petitioners, arguing against 2Ls Michelle Ramus & Elizabeth Upton for the respondents. Finalists will be arguing before a bench featuring Judges William J. Kayatta, Jr., Raymond M. Kethledge, and Kathleen M. O'Malley.

This year's case presents two issues. The first involves a new escheat law that applies to a broader category of property and has much shorter time frame than the traditional 20 years, which raises taking questions. The second is a due process notice issue with the law providing limited notice to owners. 

Doors to the Marvin Center Betts Theater will open at 1 pm for general admission seating. Doors will close at 1:35 pm out of respect for the competitors.

There will be a student reception in the Marvin Center 3rd Floor Ballroom following the finals from 3:45 - 5 pm.
