Moot Court Board The Moot Court Board consists of approximately 16 Student Judges (depending on class size) and an Executive Board consisting of approximately seven members. The Moot Court Board operates under the guidance of a faculty advisor.
All advocates successfully completing AA1 and any spring appellate advocacy program (i.e. Domestic or Jessup Competition) are eligible for election to the Moot Court Executive Board (i.e. including position of: Chairperson, Vice-Chair positions, Domestic Competition Coordinator, AA1 Coordinator, Supreme Court Day Coordinator and Jessup Coordinator). Students who have successfully completed AA1 are eligible to become student judges. Student judges are responsible for advising student advocates on their brief writing and oral argument preparation in AA1 and the Spring Semester Competitions. Student Judges also judge and score student advocates’ oral arguments and briefs in these programs. Selection to all positions is made by the current Moot Court Executive Board based on the student’s participation in Moot Court programs, personal interviews and an editing sample.
