Texas Law has suspended our Supreme Court Clinic. The vast majority of elite law schools offer a Supreme Court Clinic, and Texas Law has for many years been in line with its peers in providing students this unique opportunity. As one recent participant put it, “the Supreme Court Clinic offers a set of distinctive educational benefits that is not replicated by other clinics, by skills courses focused on appellate advocacy, or by participation in moot court tournaments.”

We are petitioning Dean Farnsworth to come together with the greater Texas Law and Austin legal community to find a way to save this valuable institution for current and future students and the clients they serve. Regardless of whether you were planning on participating in the clinic, we ask you to join our petition to help underscore the value our community places on its work, on the valuable skill-building opportunities it provides our students, and on the importance of the clinic in maintaining our school's stature. Thank you!
