A Meaningful Workshop On Moot Court



On 24th November 2019 the School of Law CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Lavasa Campus conducted a workshop on Moot Courts for first year students of Law. The sessions were conducted by a team of four advocates in five sessions. The workshop commenced at 12.00 PM and the first session was based on the understanding and application of the Constitution of India and Civil Procedure Code with special reference to Moot Court case. It specifically lay emphasis on the process to be conducted in the moot court. Post lunch, the second session was conducted in the moot court wherein the SLCU students and the team that had come to conduct the workshop conjointly executed the demonstration moot. Post Tea, the sessions were resumed and the third session was based on understanding and application of IPC, Criminal Procedure Code for Trial Advocacy case. Further the session for Demonstration of Trial Advocacy was conducted in the moot court where the students were given the advantage of taking up active participation as witnesses in the case during the proceedings.
The workshop concluded by 9 PM and post dinner an additional session was held from 10.30 PM to 1 AM for the students who are the Club Heads, Committee Heads, Class Representatives and members of the Student Council along with the team that is representing the college for Philips C. Jessup International Moot Court.
The first year students of BA-LLB and BBA-LLB found the entire learning experience quite enriching and it led to the success of the program. They were glad to get valuable inputs about professional ethics and etiquettes to be practiced while mooting. They also observed that simultaneously it is a significant fragment in the field of litigation and the same can be applied in academics and co-curricular activities.
The workshop would not have been possible without the efforts and cooperation of Dr Fr Jossy George, Director & Dean CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Lavasa Campus, Dr Daisy Alexander, HOD, School of Law, law faculty members, class representatives, student council, moot court committee, all other committee and club heads. All the students attended the sessions and were completely satisfied with the chain of events. The event was fruitful as it imparted knowledge to young law students and they look forward to similar sessions in future.
