Tid og sted

A case is handed out at the beginning of October. The pleadings are then worked on until the end of January. When the last pleading has been submitted, a start is made on the exercises for the oral proceedings, ending with the competition itself, which is held in Easter week in Vienna.

The more detailed programme is laid down by agreement between the tutors and the chosen participants. In this connection there is consideration of the opportunity to take courses (and exams) in other subjects.

Formål

After participating in the competition students will be able to:

  • Give an account of the most important elements of international sales law and international arbitration
  • Describe the relevant legal principles and regulations briefly and accurately
  • Identify the key problems
  • Refer to the aids to interpretation in accordance with generally recognised legal methods
  • Present legal arguments for possible solutions.

Indhold

The mooting competition is aimed in particular at students who want to work with CISG and arbitration.

The students are split into two groups which work independently in order to find the relevant cases, literature etc. with a view to preparing pleadings for a fictitious arbitration case.

Following this, the students work with two attorneys as tutors for the oral proceedings, and the students take part in a number of practice exercises in Denmark and abroad.

Faglige forudsætninger

Written and spoken English at an advanced level.

Participants have the possibility of following courses that are relevant to the competition, regardless of whether they have registered for the courses or whether such a course is over-subscribed. However, it is only possible to enter for the exam if the student has been registered for the course according to the normal rules.

This possibility applies to the following courses:

  • CISG
