Pace ICC Moot

Pace ICC Moot The Pace International Criminal Court (ICC) Moot Competition is the first-of-its kind competition in

THE COMPETITION IN BRIEF: Each team submits three short memorials (briefs) requiring the students to research and develop arguments based on the three participants in ICC prosecutions, i.e., the Prosecution, the Defence and the Victims’ Advocates, a new role developed for the first time for the International Criminal Court. These memorials will be evaluated by legal scholars, and prizes will be awarded for best brief, second place runner-up, and third place runner-up in each of the three categories of memorials. Perhaps the most exciting feature of the Moot, and one unique to this competition, is that each team of students will participate in three rounds of oral arguments and have the opportunity of arguing from all three perspectives, prosecutor, defence counsel and victims’ advocate. Past participants have commented that they had never experienced a better way of learning the substantive and procedural law in a given area and of fully developing the arguments of the parties than by having the opportunity to make those arguments from all three perspectives during the Moot. The two highest scored teams in the English-language round will advance to the finals in The Hague, to compete against qualifying teams from around the world.

On behalf of the Pace ICC Moot, I want to thank Pace Law Librarian (and former student, mooter and assistant coach) Lucie Olejnikova for all of her efforts on behalf of the moot (specifically) and the international law programs at Pace (in general). Lucie will be leaving Pace to take up a position at Duke Law School. Our loss is their very big gain!
