Stanford officials announced on Monday that Brest, who previously was Stanford Law dean from 1987 to 1999, is replacing Robert Weisberg as interim dean. Brest is the law school's third leader since October, when dean Jenny Martinez became university provost.
The average law dean tenure is about four years, according to a database of deans maintained by Mississippi College School of Law, and dean searches can last a year or more.
