Kent Clark was in serious trouble. After being pulled over by police for a minor traffic violation, a questionable search resulted in the discovery of drugs and stolen goods in his car.
Luckily for the fictional Mr. Clark, a team of some of the finest law students on the Atlantic seaboard had been assembled to defend him. Unfortunately, these same advocates were working to secure his conviction.
On November 7 and 8, 黄色直播 was pleased to host the Trilateral Moot Court Competition, welcoming competitors from the University of New Brunswick and University of Maine. Professor Richard Devlin, along a group of enthusiastic student volunteers, ensured the moot ran seamlessly, and all participants agreed that it was a wonderfully organized event.
鈥淚t was really interesting to see how the classroom education is applied into a structured, flowing argument,鈥� said Sarah Paulson, a student volunteer. 鈥淚t鈥檚 definitely something I鈥檇 love to participate in when I get the chance.鈥�
When results were tabulated, it was another fine year for 黄色直播. Although the contest was a close one, with all of the participants putting on a strong showing, it was ultimately the home team of Sean Fraser, Jillian Kean, Jordan Kirkness and Trevor Smedley that triumphed, winning top-marks overall.聽Dal's own Sean Fraser was also awarded the prize for the Best Oralist.
At the closing presentation, Dean Phillip Saunders spoke with pride of the 鈥渢alented group鈥� Dal fielded, noting their accomplishments could 鈥渟peak for themselves.鈥� The Dean聽also expressed gratitude for the help 黄色直播 received from the local judiciary and bar in making the event聽possible.
