Evenwel v. Abbott Moot featuring William Consovoy

11/16

Open to the public

The Federalist Society, the American Constitution Society, and the Moot Court Board present the Evenwel v. Abbott Moot featuring William Consovoy. The Moot will take place Monday, November 16 at 12:15 PM in the Courtroom. Lunch will be provided.

Mr. Consovoy will be arguing Evenwel v Abbott before the Supreme Court on December 8, 2015. The case involves the question of how the “one-person, one-vote principle” under the Equal Protection Clause allows States to apportion legislative districts. Does such principle allow States to base the apportionment on the total population or must the apportionment be based on the voter population? Mr. Consovoy will be appearing on behalf of the Appellants. Professor Stephanopoulos, Professor Baude, and Mr. Mortara will be helping him prepare by conducting a mock oral argument.
