Mooting Structure Helpsheet This sheet breaks down your moot into five simple steps. Although it's up to you how you do your research, what style you use and how you structure your argument, the structure sheet will help if you're not sure where to start. .doc .pdf
Skeleton Skeleton This 'skeleton skeleton' will provide a guide to writing your own skeleton argument. All the italicised parts need to be changed to apply to the moot that you are doing, the position you're arguing and your argument. This is only a guide - everyone develops their own way of putting together a skeleton. Find something that suits your style of work and mooting, just make sure it's well structured and concise! .doc .pdf
Completed Skeleton This completed skeleton argument is for the Junior Appellant in the Hardup Construction Ltd v University of the West Midlands mooting problem. Have a look through it to give you an idea of how the completed skeleton should look. .doc .pdf
Skeleton Skelly This ‘skeleton skelly’ is simply the guide for a slightly different style of skeleton to the ‘skeleton skeleton’ above. It works in the same way – replace the italicised parts with information relevant to your moot for a simple skeleton argument. Then start to develop your own style of skeleton! .doc .pdf
R v Frenchman A typical mooting problem showing the way the moot is set out and the type of problem you are likely to get. The grounds of appeal are clearly stated at the bottom. .doc .pdf
Mooting Preparation Booklet Much of the information in this booklet can be found on the website, but if you want an offline reference copy or a condensed version that you can print, then the Mooting Preparation Booklet is the answer!   .pdf
