CREDIT HOURS: 3
The Laskin Moot is Canada's national bilingual constitutional and administrative law moot court competition. It takes place in late February or early March each year at a different host faculty in Canada. Preparation of a factum is required in advance of the moot. One team member must be capable of mooting in French but other team members need not be bilingual. The course is open to third year students, and participants are generally selected either following a 'moot-off' competition conducted by the Moot Court Committee or by the faculty member coaching the moot.
NOTE: Students may take only one competitive moot during their JD.
