We are happy to announce that Ravi Mehta has won the inaugural King’s Bench Essay Prize. Catherine Greenwood and Dominic Hatje came second and third respectively. Ravi has won an internship with our sponsors, Weil, Gotshal & Manges, a £150 cash prize and a trophy. His winning essay will be published in the next issue of King’s Bench. Catherine and Dominic have been awarded prizes of £60 and £40 respectively. All three essays can be found on this website.
