Intellectual Property Moot Court Team - Patents and Copyrights

1-2 units

Enrollment limit: 4. [Students do not register online for this course.] Second-year and third-year JDs will be selected for this moot court competition by tryouts in the fall semester. Those selected will prepare briefs and participate in the Giles Sutherland Rich Memorial Moot Court Competition, held in Chicago during the spring semester. Team members will receive two hours of academic credit, graded on a credit/no-credit basis, to be posted in the spring semester. While there are no formal pre-requisites or co-requisites for this moot court competition, preference will be given to students who have taken and/or are enrolled in patent- or copyright-related courses. [Students should keep in mind the limitations regarding credit toward their degree for competition work (as a participant or board member): 1) a maximum of 4 total credits from competitions; 2) only one competition per semester. Students should also keep in mind that these credits count toward the 19 maximum allowed in non-law and non-classroom component classes.] 2 units (posted to spring semester)
