NYU Law Team Wins Space Law Moot Court World Championship
A team of NYU Law students, consisting of Elyse Cox '27, Jacqueline Stark LLM '25, and Denis McGrath '27, won the world finals in the Manfred Lachs Space Law Moot Court for 2025.
Their victory marked a first for NYU Law in the competition and the first Manfred Lachs world championship for a North American team in over a decade.
“So step number one was trying to bring the Space Law Society back to NYU, which I did with the help of [Murry and Ida Becker Professor of Law] Benedict Kingsbury, who’s our faculty sponsor,”
says McGrath, who began the journey to becoming international champions during his 1L year. The team's win was a result of reviving the Space Law Society, which had gone dormant during the COVID-19 pandemic.
