Kingsland Cup and Prize Moot

Kingsland Cup and Prize Moot

With moots covering European, environmental and public law, the competition will take place over three rounds. The first round sees entrants judged on their skeleton arguments, with the top-scoring teams appearing at the semi-final in London before distinguished Court of Appeal and High Court judges in a full mock court in February.

The Grand Final was held in Courtroom 2 at the Old Bailey and was judged by Justice Sir Ross Cranston, professor of law at London School of Economics and a retired High Court judge. Comparable arrangements for this year's final are to be confirmed closer to the time.

*TYPO CORRECTION* Please note that on line 2 of paragraph 10 to the first round moot problem, the reference to “the Claimant” should read as a reference to “the Interested Party’s representatives”

Prizes will be awarded to both the runners up and overall winners.

The semi-finals were held remotely on 23 and 28 of July with teams from Nottingham Law School, UCL and City, University of London.

Congratulations to the finalists:

Jack Stuart and Jack Moore (Nottingham Law School) and Natalie Nguyen and Nicholas Jones (City, University of London)

The final is due to take place in the autumn this year.
