La Trobe University Law School reaches the finals of an international mooting competition and is awarded with honourable mentions for our team's advocacy.
The La Trobe University Law School team reached the final eight and came equal fifth in the competition. It is the third year in a row that we have made the finals. La Trobe Law reached the semi-finals in 2009 and the quarter finals in 2010.
Congratulations to our team: Emily Boutard, Laura Polack, Nathan Sargent and Timothy Martin.
Particular congratulations go to our two oralists, Emily Boutard and Laura Pollack who were both awarded with honourable mentions for their superior advocacy. It is the second time that our team captain Ms. Boutard has participated with a La Trobe University mooting team that has reached the finals of an international mooting competition.
These results consolidate La Trobe University's international reputation as a law school which moots at the highest levels. Our international mooters have developed their written and oral advocacy skills, they have learnt the value of team work and they have networked with lawyers, judges and academics from all around the world.
