Nelson Mandela University Faculty of Law Moot Court Final 2017

The Moot Court module is an elective offered to law students. The blend of theory and practical application by which the module is delivered, equips and trains the students to participate fully in the moot court experience. The final which was held on the 27th July 2017, for the first time in the Port Elizabeth High Court, is a culmination of various assessments.

The 2 teams with the highest marks qualified. Appearing for the applicant team were Nceba Mafa and Katongo Bwalya and arguing for the respondents were Chante du Toit and Ivan Oosthuizen. The teams presented arguments to an adjudicating panel composed of Judge Eksteen, Advocate Dup de Bruyn, Advocate Wabo Msizi, Prof Avinash Govindjee and Mr Kailash Karsan.

The winning team, Nceba Mafa and Katongo Bwalya, will be representing Nelson Mandela University at 26th African Human Rights Moot to be hosted by the University of Mauritius in September 2017.

May God of the holy mount Zion bless you, my learned jurists.
You even demonstrated better than some of the practising legal practitioners.
I have been the legal practitioner for almost two decades.
Keep it up. Excellent.

How i wish in my University moot court would be taken serious as appearing in court would be a life time for me and some of my fellow students, let alone the matter of being not taken serious as law students with a shaking accreditation, without law professors, and only If I. Knew where I am to go after finishing my LLB degree next year.

As a first year law students here at NMU I feel highly intimidated, I know according to my level of knowledge I haven't reached that part of hierarchy though🤣🤚🏿

[ke_tebza]

This reminds me of mock trials in suits.

I will have to go with the respondents, the temporary housing has rules to safekeep and insure the security of the occupants. Temporary housing and permanent housing cannot enjoy the same right. The temporary housing is one of necessity. The applicant could have applied for the exemption of the lock-out rule.

😂😂😂😂😂thought I was the only one that ever gets nervous when ever the judge poses a question and I literally can’t make sense of what they just asked after my submissions 😂😂 practice makes perfect
