[WSBAPT] [OT] ABA NAAC Moot Court - FREE CLE CREDIT - Feb 21-23 Seattle

[Tara]

I’m volunteering as a moot court judge this weekend for the ABA NAAC
competition at the Seattle US District Courthouse.  They still need many
more licensed attorneys to serve as judges.  It’s free CLE credit and
that’s always nice!  More details are below.  If you are able to volunteer
just call 312.988.5621 or email  naac at americanbar.org

We critically need 80 attorneys to serve as judges for the 2013-14 Seattle
Regional National Appellate Advocacy Competition (NAAC) on February 21-23,
2014 at the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington. 

 

CLE CREDIT INFORMATION

The ABA Law Student Division National Appellate Advocacy Competition will
apply for CLE credit in Washington, Illinois, California, and New York.

 

Upon signing up to judge, we will provide a bench memorandum, the problem
(record), and instructions on judging. Reviewing these materials is the
only preparation required of competition judges. 

 

This year’s case involves two questions. The first examines the difference
between “use” and “access” to determine whether an intern violated the
Computer Fraud and Abuse Act when she removed some of her work from the
company’s computer files just before resigning her position.  The second
addresses whether a law student intern qualifies as an “employee” under
the Fair Labor Standards Act, and is thus entitled to compensation. 

 

The rounds are scheduled as follows:

 

Round 1: Friday, Feburary 21  (4:30 pm to 8:45 pm)

Round 2: Saturday, Feburary 22 (8:30 am to 12:45 pm)

Round 3: Saturday, February 22 (1:30 pm to 5:45 pm)

Round 4: Sunday, Feburary 23  (12:00 pm to 2:30 pm)

Round 5: Sunday, Feburary 23  (2:30 pm to 5:00 pm)

 

If you are willing to serve as a judge, please enter your contact
information and round selection on the form located at:

CLE CREDIT INFORMATION

apply for CLE credit in Washington and New York.

 

Please contact me at 312.988.5621 or at naac at americanbar.org  if you have
any questions.

 

The development of oral and written advocacy skills is very important in
the context of legal practice. We sincerely hope you will be able to
participate in this great learning experience for law students by serving
as a judge. 

 

Thank you for considering this invitation. 

 

Sincerely,
