Evidence Scholar Mnookin from UVA to UCLA

Jennifer Mnookin, a leading young evidence law scholar at the University of Virginia, has accepted a tenured offer from the University of California, Los Angeles.  (Her husband, the political theorist Joshua Dienstag, is also moving from Virginia to the Political Science Department at UCLA.)  This is the first lateral recruitment for UCLA Law School this year, which had a big year of senior hiring last academic year.
