Is anyone doing the BOND UNI mooting comp? (1 Viewer)

[cdingle]

I am

Are you talking about the Mock Trial Competition run by Bond University?

 

[cdingle]

I'm doing that as well but a mooting competition is like a mock trial but slightly different. A moot only consist of two barristers and a solicitor that present an appeal case to a judge(s), there are no wittnesses or anything like that but the judge can ask you questions. First prize is like a 40% scholarship for law.
