Liberty University School of Law did very well in a National moot court competition held at Regent University School of Law. The team of Spencer Drake (Class of 2011) and Mark Hicks (Class of 2012) placed second in the National Constitutional Law Moot Court Competition by a 5-4 vote during the final round on Saturday, February 12. Hicks won the Best Oralist award and Rachel Marshall (Class of 2011) won Second Best Oralist. The team of Drake and Hicks won the Second Best Brief award.
“The problem this year was on the national healthcare law. Having spent some time studying this issue in preparation for my own oral argument later this year, I can say that the problem was very well done and very close to the actual facts,” according to Mathew D. Staver, Dean of Liberty University School of Law.
“I am very proud of the law school’s students and the law school’s tradition of excellence,” concluded Staver.
Liberty University School of Law is committed to academic and professional excellence in the context of the Christian intellectual tradition. For more information about the law school or future events at the law school please visit www.law.liberty.edu or call 434-592-5300.
