Moscow State University Wins the 2012 Jessup Competition

The team from Moscow State University has won the 2012 Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition, beating out Columbia Law School of New York in the final round arguments held today in Washington, D.C.

As noted in our earlier post, this year's competition marked the first time that the final bench was comprised of three sitting judges of the International Court of Justice.

A DVD recording of the final round will be available for purchase from the International Law Students Association (ILSA), the organization the puts on the Jessup Competition.  This year's international rounds appear to have been the largest in the organization's history.
