Navigation Submission and Registration Deadline Extended for the 2025 High School Appellate Brief Writing & Moot Court Competition
The High School Appellate Brief Writing & Moot Court Competition is an event that provides high school students in Florida with a unique and enriching experience in the world of law and advocacy. Registration is open for teams that would like to participate in the 2025 competition. The submission and registration deadline has been extended to January 31, 2025, at 5:00 p.m.
This prestigious competition offers high school students the opportunity to gain a firsthand understanding of the appellate process by engaging in brief-writing and oral argument exercises based on a fictitious case.
The competition, sponsored by The Florida Bar’s Law Related Education Committee, is open to high school students across Florida. Homeschools are invited to participate in the competition as well. Students work in teams of two, coached by a teacher or qualified sponsor, to draft a brief for either the petitioner or the respondent, using only the cases, citations, and legal authorities provided in the case problem.
