The Ames Moot Court Competition is one of the most prestigious competitions for appellate brief writing and advocacy in the country. The students participating in the Final Round started the competition in fall of their 2L year. Two teams progressed to the Final Round through their strong research abilities and excellent written and oral advocacy.

Every year, I'm longing to see this video. Thank you, Harvard for inspiring us. Congrats to these young minds!
SHALOM
HALLELUJAH
This is fucking horrifying. I thought giving my chemistry senior thesis was the worst thing imaginable because I'd shit my pants standing before these highly esteemed legal experts
That’s cool and all but did they know the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell?
What I can say is that, the submission by Ms Hoogan was phenomenal, the way she structured here argument and also citing relevant statute and case law simultaneously was worth the salt.
She was pure brilliance
The best oralist truly deserved that, i knew from the moment she started making her arguments that she was confident and correct in her deliveries and advocacy. Both teams did a great job.
These videos are so interesting to me and I am not even an attorney or law student.
This school is my dream school, and the arguments were so well put, and the candidates were beyond confident. It amazes me! Good luck for the future.
I hav been waiting for this for some days.
This video just cured my insomnia.I guess a putting together a bunch of words to form nonsensical sentences initially put me into a trance and I passed out not too long after. Thank you! Better than any medication and a more natural way to defeat insomnia.
Such brilliant scholars 👩🏫 and super attentive judges 👩🏻🎓👨🏼🎓. Great work!
It's almost as if they're speaking English.
😂😂😂😂
I don’t know the other two but Sri Srinivasan should have been a lock for the Supreme Court.
Obama was picking between him and merrick Harland to replace Scalia. Srinivasan would have been a truly bipartisan pick as he clerked for conservative judges but served in a Democratic administration
@Darian so interesting to me. Can't believe US lets legislature choose judges and control judiciary to that extent.
@@valley-girl In Germany it's even worse. The parties are basically taking turns in nominating judges for the Federal Constitutional Court. But also would a unilateral appointment by the president be better? (look at Canada for example)
@@bensonfang1868 There was NO WAY the Republicans were going to pick ANY OBAMA nominated judge, even if he or she clerked for Scalia.
Yes! Thanks for uploading this!
having mock trial this week, please pray for me ^^
How’d it go? I’m 17 and I am interested in studying law so your response would be greatly appreciated😇
Good luck fellow Crimson
@@jayzstreamv6678 If you're still in HS, you should join your own school's mock trial/debate team to help you get better at being an oralist
Jesus is the Way the Life and the Truth, God has you and you can not be plucked from His hand, may God be with you!!❤
Thanks a lot harvard law school, for uploading the video!
Shame they couldn’t get any actual Supreme Court justices this year.
Had my moot court the other day. First one. Got very humbled by the other schools ngl.
lol same with my debate meeting
LOL i know that feeling but it will definitely improve you so take it as a learning experience
@@SimRan-ur5nl everything was against me, I was competing with the winnners. 1,2 and 3🤣I had no shot
I have a moot tomorrow and this video here is next level...I'm watching it to properly prepare
This is absolutely fascinating 🎉
This is awesome
I want to get into moot court so bad, but I'm also terrified. It's amazing! 😂
5:00 best oralist
when i hear "common law" i hear "i have nothing left to argue"
Whenever I watch this video, I feel like I am the one who is pleading over there.
It's like living your dream.... 😌
nice
good for my prep
Guuuyyyssss I have a college (A level) moot court this Thursday and I am the senior Counsel. How do I structure a well prepared speech for petitioner and respondent? I have completed my memorial helppp!
How'd it go..
@@RVUI heyyy so we didnt reach the finals but i got the award for best memorial! Wohooo! Overall this competition gave me alot of confidence and the judges comments were that i sounded confident and my speech was well structured but i do need work in critical thinking which i agree so yeah jsut working on it currently! Thankyou for asking 🤓
@@emaanfaiz3678 Aye that's good to hear!! best wishes on your law practice 🤍🤍 Great work :D
See 1991 Harvard moot...u will be impressed.
what a legend
Who knows the account of first one?
No Court!
What an absolutely stunningly uninteresting debate topic
Organisasi itu memang ada
Has to always be there’s three reasons- always the case lol
Seems the first oralist is also the winner for best oralist as always. The rest won’t get the prize. So if u on the second or third oralist and so on means highly unlikely u not the best one!
Best wishes

It's a moot competition, pls give an opportunity of bring heard.
It also applies here.
SUPER ATTENTIVE JUDGES ,and BRILLIANT YOUNG LEGAL MINDS .
she requested from the court, the court gave no response
Conflict of laws case :the situs choice of law is usually (the aggregate of ) the totality of the contacts. Place of incorporation, physical location of the origin of the alleged harm, and site of the injury. Diversity of citizenship effects choice of forum , federal or state jurisdiction . Lots of old cases like Worldwide Volkswagen are similar , Interstate vs intrastate commerce . Thorny issues of standing ,jurisdiction, tort , and causality. As usual in moot court competitions one side had the better argument on standing jurisdiction , the other on substantive ( tort ) law. But, did the judges render an advisory opinion?

1:14:29 wow
is it not innocent until proven guilty?
She strives to appear affected to address an issue under a statute that justifies a course of action.
yea a "scheme"
Pizza vs.Solami,Culiacan.
pollution has zero to do with the constitution, it has to do with private businesses
Laws are just people's opinions man. It's all so subjective.
Yes, law application is purely subject to one’s (in position to)interpretation, hence law itself is not an objective factual narrative.
It works based on precedent so yea pretty much
And whoever that can put fancier words together to make a simple opinion sound grand wins
she said many other things but did not answer the question, practically and in conduct
there is no legal or merit for this type of pollution

Kidding?
Just to anyone
Not me forever of JESUS PRESENT
The problem of the oil company and global warming does not concern one American state with another, but concerns the world and all human beings on all parts of the globe, and I believe the solution
Instead of imposing a tax or compensation on it, every oil company in the whole world
That the oil companies be required to designate a financial fund to start using modern technology in reducing the risk of emissions that affect the climate and health
Opinion The real problem is that, as the first speaker said, there is no evidence or way to measure harm. That is redundant
Because the damage is measured by the direct causal relationship by technicians with specialization from climate change scientists and statisticians, and when the case is transferred to them, the opinion of the court almost ends, and the opinion of the court remains formal, and the opinion and decision of the court are the decision of the technicians in the phenomenon of global warming
For artists, the damage is clear, and repeating the crime of climate pollution is an ongoing crime
My dear, if you go back to my first comment and suggest that every oil company be required to create a financial fund in order to use modern technology in order to stop the phenomenon of pollution, and this is possible, not taxes, because taxes solve an immediate crisis and do not solve the crisis at the future level
He stressed that the crime of pollution is a crime that transcends borders and falls within the law of varicose veins, and because the law of varicose veins is different, this crisis remains from one year to the next.
And the question that arises, does the crisis have a solution? Yes, it is found by means of modern technology, for example, the gas associated with oil is burned and bliss.
And thank you for the harsh words that she said (you do not understand) and he confirmed that I understand you
councel did not answer the question
