The Department of Law at MAIMS, established in 2017, has quickly risen to prominence as a center of legal education. Offering programs such as BA LL.B, BBA LL.B, and an LLM with specializations in Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), and Corporate Law, the department focuses on providing students with a holistic legal education that combines rigorous academic learning with practical skills training. With highly experienced faculty members, cutting-edge facilities like Moot Court Rooms, a Mediation Center, and an Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Center, MAIMS ensures that its students are well-prepared to face the challenges of a rapidly evolving legal landscape.
The Moot Court Society (MCS) at MAIMS is a vibrant student-driven body dedicated to promoting mooting culture and advocacy skills among law students. Over the years, MCS has successfully hosted numerous national-level moot court and trial advocacy competitions, and it has established a reputation for organizing high-quality, well-coordinated events that challenge participants’ intellectual rigor and advocacy skills. The society works diligently to provide participants with a professional, enriching experience, while also offering students the opportunity to gain valuable insights into the functioning of courts and the intricacies of legal research and argumentation.
MCS has been at the forefront of fostering a mooting culture that not only focuses on winning competitions but also encourages teamwork, legal ethics, and professionalism. This commitment to providing a platform for students to practice and develop real-world legal skills is one of the driving forces behind the success of the National Moot Court Competition, now entering its 5th edition.
The 5th National Moot Court Competition will unfold in two phases: the Preliminary Rounds (online) and the Advanced Rounds (offline), giving participants the flexibility to showcase their skills in both virtual and in-person formats.
Participants will compete for cash prizes worth ₹51,000, distributed across several categories to recognize outstanding performance and skill:
Winning these awards not only provides financial incentives but also enhances the participants’ resumes, demonstrating their excellence in moot court competitions, which can be instrumental in future internships, job applications, and academic endeavors.
The competition problem will revolve around contemporary legal issues, providing participants with the opportunity to delve into pressing matters affecting the legal and societal landscape. From constitutional law and human rights to intellectual property and corporate law, the competition will require participants to think critically, conduct extensive legal research, and craft compelling arguments.
With participation from law students across the country, the event provides an excellent platform for networking with peers, legal practitioners, and scholars. The offline rounds offer opportunities to interact with judges, legal professionals, and academicians, helping students build valuable connections that could prove beneficial in their legal careers.
The competition’s judging panel will consist of renowned legal professionals, including senior advocates, judges, and law professors. Participants will receive detailed feedback on their performance, enabling them to refine their advocacy skills and gain a deeper understanding of how the legal system operates. The experience of arguing in front of seasoned professionals is invaluable for any aspiring lawyer.
Mooting is not just an individual endeavor; it requires excellent teamwork and collaboration. Each team will consist of two speakers and one researcher, and success in the competition depends on how well team members work together, divide tasks, and support each other during oral arguments and memorial drafting. The competition helps students build essential skills in teamwork, communication, and leadership—qualities that are highly valued in the legal profession.
The final round coinciding with India’s 75th Constitution Day adds a special significance to the event. This day is a momentous occasion for the legal community, celebrating the adoption of the Indian Constitution and reflecting on its importance in shaping India’s legal framework. Mooting on this day adds a sense of purpose and national pride to the competition, making it an unforgettable experience.
This competition is open to law students currently enrolled in a three-year LL.B program or a five-year integrated LL.B program at any recognized law school or university in India. Each institution can send one team consisting of two speakers and one researcher.
Interested teams must register by filling out the registration form by October 7, 2024. A registration fee of ₹3,000 per team is applicable for participation, covering both the Preliminary (Online) and Advanced (Offline) Rounds.
