Our symposium continues today with a series of posts from Jennifer Martin. Over the years, we have had many occasions to take note of Jennifer Martin’s contributions to contracts scholarship, both in written form and in the form of her participation in the annual KCON conferences. She and her institution hosted KCON IX in 2014.
Jennifer S. Martin joined the law faculty at St. Thomas University in 2010. She teaches courses in contracts, transactional skills, business associations and commercial law. She is an elected member of the American Law Institute where she is part of the Members Consultative Group for Uniform Commercial Code Issues and the Restatement of the Law, Consumer Contracts, as well as being a Fellow of the American Bar Foundation. In addition to her regular gig at St. Thomas, Jennifer has also visited at Drexel University Kline School of Law, University of Oregon School of Law, University of Louisville and University of Pittsburgh. Before entering the legal academy, Jennifer was a Principal Attorney for Houston Industries Incorporated (now Reliant Energy), working on power generation transactions domestically and internationally.
Jennifer has published many articles and given lectures on subjects such as contract and commercial law remedies, wartime and conflict contracting, consumer rights, and lender liability. She is a co-author of CONTRACTS: A CONTEMPORARY APPROACH (West Academic 3d ed. with Chomsky, Kunz and Schiltz) and LEARNING SALES (West Academic 1st ed. with Chomsky, Kunz and Schiltz). She is also the author of the American Bar Association’s Annual Survey on Sales Law published annually in THE BUSINESS LAWYER and prepares the annual update to COMMERCIAL AND CONSUMER WARRANTIES (Lexis).
We are grateful to Jennifer for her willingness to join us in the Symposium.
