Grand Unified Argument of Tremendous Social and Political Import

The moot court brief is done and mailed off. It might even be decent. We'll find out in a month (or so) after it's been scored.

It was a little aggravating though. The submission rules were extremely precise. Except when they were extremely ambiguous. Sometimes on the same point… I don't think we'll lose any points for not dotting any proverbial i's properly, but then, I've never done one of these competitions before so who knows. (I've done moot courts before, but all intramural. This is the first time I've done an extra-mural one.)

I don't want to talk too specifically about the material right now because we haven't been scored yet, and they're supposed to be graded blindly. But in February when it's all over and done with I hope to. In certain ways it was an interesting exercise, the brief writing.

Anyway, this week is for catching up on all the things avoided while we cranked it out. Next week we'll prepare our oral arguments, and then spend the remaining time practicing.

Stay tuned…
