Criminal Law Clinic

Beginning in fall 2012 and offered each fall and spring semester, this clinic offers students interested in criminal law the chance to participate in a seminar taught by a prosecutor and two defense attorneys, all three of whom are leading practitioners in the Vermont criminal law bar and members of the VLS criminal law faculty. Professors Robert Sand, Anna Saxman, and Kevin Griffin have joined forces to offer this unique opportunity to students who have determined that they are serious about criminal law as a career. Students enrolled in the clinic will work on real cases under the direct supervision of the professors in their respective criminal law offices.

Enrollment is limited to six students per semester. Interested students should submit a letter of interest, writing sample,  and a resume to Visitng Assistant Professor of Law Jeffry White's attention at Rogers House. Applications must be submitted to Assistant Professor White no later than April 16, 2012 for the Fall 2012 Semester.
