The current open draw and knockout system seems to work. However, we could have a Wimbledon style seeding approach where say six teams were seeded - with the draw designed to avoid them meeting before the quarter-final stage.

The Grand Final of the 2007 Mooting Competition was held in Coopers' Hall on Wednesday 18th July.

The Judges: Dr Peter Jepson. Mr Duncan Bunce, Ms Lisa Incledon.

The Appellants [Samantha Lewis/Lisa Stout] v The Respondents [Edward Ackers/Sophi Hamilton]

The case of R v Able.

All four of the contestants were superb in the Grand Moot Final and there was little to choose between the teams. In the end, Kelly & Sheilla edged it.



What both teams (Kelly & Sheilla - Charlotte & Faye) demonstrated is that with hard work you can succeed in Criminal Law.

A big thank you to Lisa Incledon (for her help) and ALL of the students who participated in the competition from Dr Peter Jepson and Mrs Anna Lindley.
