Congratulations to rising 3Ls Jarredd Simpson and Kayle Smith, who were selected to the Business Law Section of the Florida Bar’s Scholars Program for the upcoming year. The Scholars Program is designed to introduce and recruit future lawyers to the Business Law Section by providing law students the opportunity to meet and interact with a diverse group of business lawyers and judges.
Jarredd and Kayle attended the Business Law Section’s annual meeting, held in conjunction with the Florida Bar Annual Convention, and got a front-row seat to interesting discussions regarding the future of Florida business and corporate law.

Professor Itai Fiegenbaum’s latest article, "The Direct-Derivative Divide in Florida Shareholder Litigation," has been accepted for publication in the St. Thomas University Law Review. The article surveys the key decisions that have shaped Florida’s approach to the issue of claim classification in shareholder litigation, identifies the underlying sources of doctrinal tension, and proposes a unified framework to bring clarity and coherence to shareholder standing in the state.
Professor Fiegenbaum also presented his current research project, tentatively entitled “Delaware’s Blunder,” at the National Business Law Scholars Conference hosted at UCLA. This project is one of the first to apply a political economy lens to arguably the most important corporate law development in recent years.
