In the spirit of professional growth, the School of Law sponsors the Vincent S. Dalsimer Moot Court Competition each year. This provides students the opportunity to develop the skills of appellate practice, brief writing, and oral argument. Pepperdine's Moot Court Competition is named for the Honorable Vincent S. Dalsimer, who has served in the capacity of Dean and Associate Dean of the School of Law and is retired from the California State Court of Appeal. Throughout his distinguished career as an attorney, jurist, and legal educator, Justice Dalsimer has been actively involved in the training of trial and appellate advocates. The participants consist of 2nd and 3rd year law students. Each of the 2-person teams has submitted a written brief which has been evaluated and assigned a grade prior to the oral arguments. Brief scores will account for 33% of the score for the preliminary rounds. Each team has argued one preliminary round representing the petitioner and one preliminary round representing the respondent. The top 8 teams presented arguments again in rounds representing both the petitioner and respondent. The teams competed on a single elimination basis culminating in the final round being argued before a 3-judge panel at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, February 28, 2004, at the Odell McConnell Law Center.
