IFIM Law School

Mooting

In order to become a successful lawyer it is essential for a student to know how to apply the law he has learnt to a fact situation and to have awareness of the rules and the etiquettes of the Court. Moot Court is like the laboratories of law schools where theoretical knowledge is tested in real life situations. Realizing this, the IFIM Law School has been facilitating continuous training to the students to participate in Moot Court. The IFIM Law School Moot Court Hall can seat over 70 people. It has a state of the art projection system that allows international live broadcasting facilities in the hall which means that physical presence of teams isn't required for conducting moot court competitions.

Further, the Moot Court Hall is multi-functional unlike traditional Moot Court Hall's because the same room can be used to conduct legal webinars and seminars. Additionally, there is a provision to record the proceedings in the room. Currently, there are two HD projectors and several drop down screens in the hall further enabling union of digital technology with the field of law. IFIM Law School strongly promotes mooting as an essential activity amongst its students. In the first year itself, students have represented the college in prestigious international moots like the Philip C Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition, Manfred Lachs Space Law Moot Court Competition and have been quarter finalists in reputed National Moot Court competitions like the Bar Council of India Moot Court Competition, the 14th Surana National Corporate Law Moot 2016, the NLS Trilegal International Arbitration Moot (NLSIAM) 2016 etc.
