The Moot Court Honor Society Internal Competition is Open to All! Two Cash Prizes!
MCHS’s internal competition is right around the corner! The competition involves an “oral only” closed-research problem, meaning competitors neither do research, nor write a brief. The winner will receive a $500 cash prize, and the runner-up will receive $200. The competition will be held on Saturday, April 12th (Don’t worry. You’ll still have plenty of time to get ready for Barristers). Lunch will be served to competitors.
