Georgia Law students win moot court competition over University of Florida

Third-year Georgia Law students Stephen D. Morrison and Jacob M. “Jake” Ware defeated a team from the University of Florida to win the annual Florida/Georgia-Hulsey/Gambrell Moot Court Competition in Jacksonville.

The long-running tournament is traditionally held the Friday before the Georgia-Florida football game. Two law students from each school compete as lawyers in a mock appellate case, and the victors earn the right to keep the championship trophy at their law school for the year. Georgia Law’s win brings its record in the competition to 22-9-2.
