Oral advocacy competitions held on the campuses of select Texas law schools. Competing in teams of two, students make arguments on both sides of a given fictitious case. Students are given around five actual cases with which to build their arguments.
Participants practice twice a week for about a month prior to competition.
UD students can earn one credit for participating. In 1999-2000, three Moot Court competitions have been scheduled. The Fall 1999 competition took place at Texas Tech Law School on November 12-13, 1999. You are also welcome to check it out by coming and watching a competition. There are many benefits to participating in Moot Court.
