All competing moot teams will consist of two students in the same year of study.
All teams seeking to compete in the intra-university moot must submit “Heads of Argument” for both the Appellant and the Respondent side by Friday the 31st of January by 11:59 p.m. No other written material needs to be submitted other than the “Heads of Argument” and a Title Page identifying the team members and whether each of the two briefs is submitted on behalf of the appellant or the respondent.
Heads of Argument should be submitted by email to dbriandennison@gmail.com
The Heads of Argument should include citations to legal authority and should not exceed 15 pages in length. The body of the text should be in 12 point Times New Roman Type, double spaced. The Footnotes should be in 10 point Times New Roman Type, single spaced.
For examples of quality briefs submitted in accordance with the “Heads of Argument” style please review the “Merits” section of the best English Language Briefs of 2012 in the African Human Rights Moot by NWU that are available for download at:
In case there are a large number of teams seeking to compete in the Intra-University Moot the quality of the Heads of Argument may be used to determine which teams are permitted to compete in the oral rounds.
The winning team from the Intra-University Moot will represent UCU at the first ever Uganda National Constitutional Moot that will take place at St. Augustine University (Kampala) on the 14th of February, 2014.
