Shapero Cup
The 2024 Shapero Cup Moot Court Competition and Symposium took
place Monday, February 19. The competition was held in courtrooms at the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court and the symposium was held at the Theodore Levin
U.S. Courthouse in Detroit. Teams of law students from University of
Kansas School of Law, University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of
Law, University of Michigan Law School, Wayne State University Law
School, and Cooley Law School competed. After the competition,
experienced attorneys conducted a demonstration argument on the same
fact pattern for the law students to observe. An awards ceremony
concluded the event. On hand for the awards ceremony were (left to

Eastern District of Michigan; and Tom DeCarlo. The Shapero Cup Moot
Court Competition and Symposium are named in honor of retired Judge
Walter Shapero for his many years of outstanding service as a bankruptcy
judge.
