Kudos to Eli D. Greenbaum, the first-place winner of the Michigan Bar Journal‘s third annual short story contest.
Greenbaum’s winning entry, Leo’s Dilemna, is a clever tale about how an elderly Holocaust survivor resolves a self-created estate-planning problem.
Other winners include:
- Todd B. Adams, As the Law is Written – 2ND PLACE
- Jill Koney Daly, Dorothy’s Home – 3RD PLACE
- Charisse L. Heath, SOL – HONORABLE MENTION
- James C. Herrinton, A Story About the Tyrrhenian Sea Pirate Pellerito – HONORABLE MENTION
- Thomas C. Kates, Holding Court at Sunrise – HONORABLE MENTION
- Robert B. Nelson, Honor Killing – HONORABLE MENTION
The MBJ received 43 entries and selected 19 winners and finalists.
They’re good reads — all of them.
