Competition
Background
The David Cohn
Appellate Advocacy Competition,
held each year in the spring, is
named for David Cohn, who attended Columbia University and graduated
from New Jersey Law School, predecessor of Rutgers School of
Law-Newark, in 1923. He was admitted to the New Jersey Bar in 1924.
Active as a trial
attorney throughout his career, Mr.
Cohn was a loyal and devoted alumni until his death in 1979. Because he
took such particular delight in teaching, training and helping young
attorneys and law students, the Cohn Family was pleased to endow this
Appellate Advocacy Competition in his honor.
Albert Cohn, his
son, served as a member of the Rutgers
Law School adjunct faculty for many years and is principal in the
family firm, Cohn, Lifland, Pearlman, Herrman & Knopf in Saddle
Brook, New Jersey.
The winners of the
David Cohn Competition will go on to
represent Rutgers School of Law-Newark in the National Appellate
Advocacy Competition.
