Vice Dean Page's Work Cited by Courts
11/08/2016
Two of Vice Dean Antony Page’s articles were cited by U.S. courts earlier this year. The common thread in both articles is addressing and attempting to reduce flawed decision-making, Vice Dean Page said.
The Delaware Chancery Court cited “Unconscious Bias and the Limits of Director Independence” in In re Ezcorp Inc. Consulting Agreement Derivative Litigation. A part of the case concerned whether a director could be considered an impartial in shareholder derivative litigation.
The Chief Judge of Missouri Court of Appeals cited “Batson's Blind–Spot: Unconscious Stereotyping and the Peremptory Challenge” in a concurring opinion in State v. Rashad. Her opinion used the article to help support the conclusion that Batson v. Kentucky is inadequate to address problems of "racial bias in jury selection.”
Vice Dean Page is an expert in corporate law. Prior to joining the faculty at IU McKinney, he worked in mergers and acquisitions, securities and corporate finance law at the law firm of Sullivan & Cromwell in their London and Los Angeles offices. Vice Dean Page also worked for the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs, serving as Second Secretary & Vice Consul in Thailand, Laos and Burma; Trade Commissioner in the Asia-Pacific South Division; and Assistant Trade Commissioner in the European Union Trade and Economic Relations Division.
