Instructions on the Remaining Lap of the Moot Competition

For reasons beyond administrative control, the Moot Court Committee has postponed the 4th Year (Second Round) Preliminary Stage. The reasons for this are partly unforeseen and partly the result of late services of processes.
The new date for the Competition is Saturday, 7th June i.e. Tomorrow, from 9:30am to 2pm. Respondents who are unable to serve their respondents brief today are required to bring them tomorrow for service in court.
Below are a few instructions for the purpose of clarification
v  Every Chambers appearing during the 4th Year Preliminaries (Second Round) tomorrow is expected to present 4 Counsel who have not previously appeared in the First Round of this stage. Any Counsel repeated shall be sent out of court by the presiding judge. It is however possible for a Chambers to present less than 4 Counsel, in which case the chambers may lose 2 to 4 marks for Teamwork.

v  Practicing fees remain fundamental

v  All other Competition Dates remain as they are below, pending compelling contingencies:
