The Lawson Moot Final involves a 'showcase' moot for members of The Inner Temple who have not yet been called to the Bar. The Lawson competition is a five-round competition that usually runs from November to March each year, beginning with approx. 64 competitors and finishing with a final of four.
The session will be introduced with a talk about Mooting by the Master of Moots.
Students will earn a QS by watching both the talk and showcase moot.
They will also be given the moot problem in advance so that they are able to submit a short skeleton argument. These will be marked by the judges of the previous rounds of the competition. An additional award will be given to the individual with the best written argument, as well as the oral advocacy winner and runner-up.
