'MR O 4: gig' J Qfd.. Z' The most gratifying accomplishment of the publication may be said to be the ulti- mate acquisition of a clearer insight and understanding into the underlying purposes and h ff h h t ntialities for benehcent influence that a publication such as t e sta as en- t e po e d cl to create has in the world of law. There has been ample opportunityf fgf eavore ex erimentation and investigation of the ground, so that we may safely say that there P has been evolved a sufficient amount of basic experience and preparedness to cope with the problems of the future. The plaintiff necessarily concedes that it still has far to go to attain perfection, d also concedes the presence of good faith on the part of the defendants. But the an laintiff comes into this court with clean hands, and asserts that its future existence P requires the support and cooperation of defendants. No injustice can be or will be' done by receiving our plea. We are not engaged in this venture for personal profit and emolument, but are rather so charged with public interest as to invoke the cloak of judicial protection. If we are correct in our contention that the defendants can and should look to THE JUSTINIAN, just as their predecessors of antiquity looked to their justinian, it must follow inevitably that the defendant students and graduates of Brooklyn Law School be perpetually commanded to lend renewed and added support to the plaintiff. Public Opinion, J., per cnmzm,-The ably argued contention of plaintiff has led this court unanimously to favor their plea. It is hereby ordered that defendant perpetually desist from neglecting plaintiff, and that they keep in touch with their Alma Mater through its columns. Q All concur. Page One Hundred Twenty ,..

L ' I 4- COURT OF CONSCIENCE: 45 KINGS COUNTY THE JUSTINIAN, Plczjfztijjf, against BROOKLYN LAW SCHOOL, Defefzdafzl PLAINTIFF,S SUMMATION Your Honor, this is a suit in equity brought on behalf of the plaintiff, T HE JUSTIN- IAN, against the students and graduates of the Brooklyn Law School to determine the claim of the plaintiff to the increased and continued, support of the defendants. The facts are simple, yet they speak with the eloquence of merit. We do not come in a spirit of self defense, nor yet of self praise. This court has heard the evidence produced on both sides pertaining to THE JUSTINIAN, past, present and future, The publication shall stand or fall on its worth, and we pray only for just and equitable relief. On December 2, 1931, THE JUSTINIAN first appeared: its purpose-to serve as a source of interest and a medium for coordinating and supplementing the activities of the law school and its alumni. During its subsequent two years of existence, it has recorded legal news, broad in its scope, activities diversified in interest and the progress of reforms momentous in character. It has carried the messages of eminent representatives of every phase of our judicial system, and has endeavored to lend its constructive support to progress in the legal field. The roster of its contributors is imposing in its variety and importance. To illustrate, there are: Justice Edward Lazansky, justice William B. Cars- well, Magistrate Jonah Goldstein, I. Maurice Wormser, Esq., jay Leo Rothschild, Esq., Harold R. Medina, Esq., john A. Eubank, Esq., Thomas S. Rice, Esq., Aaron S. Cutler, ESq., Louis B. Roudin, Esq. The staff of THE JUSTINIAN has been both efficient and industrious. Pursuing well considered plans, unity was probably brought about as much through necessity as through actual choice, for to accomplish its ends, it was essential to preserve unanimity of front. Obstacles were encountered, attacked and, by the exercise of untiring labor, overcome. Each issue meant new difficulties and new solutions, competency and incompetency, ability and inability, dross and mother lode-all these and their attendant problems came in for their share of scrutiny and uprooting-but always the work went on.
