MOOT COURT
Moot courts are mock courts in which fictitious cases are heard to train law students. This set-up creates a real-life experience of an actual court proceeding. Moot court competitions are pivotal in equipping law students with practical knowledge, technical expertise, and the confidence to excel in the legal profession. By immersing themselves in these simulated court experiences, aspiring legal professionals develop the necessary skills to navigate the complexities of the field.
Moot courts allow young law students to apply their theoretical knowledge in arguing for hypothetical cases. Moot court competitions emulate the actual trial process and are organised by law colleges/universities as well as eminent legal institutions.
