2 Law Students Win at Regional
Two University of Kansas law students, Richard Walker, Newton third year law student, and James McNish, Topeka second year law student, have been selected to represent the Midwestern region in the National Competition April 9-12 in Washington, D.C.
An international moot court competition is a law competition based on the court arguments of a hypothetical case involving international relations.
In preliminary competition at the University of Iowa last week, Walker and McNish won first place, while McNish was declared top oral advocate. Other members of the team were Mickey Moorman, Lawrence Hutchinson and Yagers, Hutchinson second year law student.
The students began preparation for the competition in October, 1972, when a legal problem was distributed to schools across the country. In this case in which two hypothetical nations were disputing a claim on national jurisdiction over fishing rights 200 miles from the coast. The argument is similar to a situation between Pera and the United States at this time.
The KU team will compete against winners in the Walker, Rangers and McNihb will use the same squad.
they used in Iowa City but, according to Walker, major changes and preparations will be made. The experience in preliminary competition showed both strong and weak arguments and strategies in their cases, he said.
The Washington competition will be judged by people with international experience.
Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas and members of the International Court of Justice in The Hague are included in the list of justices. See the section on Association of International Law Societies.
This is the first year KU has entered the international moot court competition. McNish and Walker gave credit to John Murphy, professor of law and adviser to the team, for his interest in spreading KU's reputation in international law.
