Stetson University International Environmental Law Moot

This competition provides an excellent opportunity for law students to explore issues of international environmental law in the context of a dispute before the International Court of Justice.

Each team in the International Qualifying Rounds will have the opportunity, after the problem is distributed, to select which side it will represent on the memorial on a first-come, first-served basis. Each team will then represent that same side through three preliminary oral argument rounds. The four best applicant teams and four best respondent teams will advance to the quarterfinal round. The two best applicant and two best respondent teams will then advance to the semi-final round. The top applicant and respondent team will advance to the final round.

The regional rounds for this competition are held in Australia in September & the finals held in Florida, USA in October.

A team of 4 students will be selected to represent UTS.

Academic Requisite:

To take part in this moot, it is strongly desirable that you have studied (or are studying) Public International Law.

The team is coached by Dr Stan Palassis
