The Government has appointed Erik Sjöman, LL.D. h.c., as a Justice of the Supreme Court.

Erik Sjöman, who holds a Master of Laws degree from our faculty, was awarded an honorary doctorate at the Faculty of Law in 2023. In the motivation for the honorary doctorate, the faculty paid particular attention to his contribution to the discussion of legal science in articles and book projects, in many cases in close collaboration with researchers from the faculty. Erik has also worked closely with the faculty in teaching and collaborative projects in the field of property law, whereby not least his contribution to the Business Law Center at Lund University (ACLU) - in recent years as chairman - deserve to be emphasized. 

The Faculty extends its warmest congratulations to Erik.
