This yearlong clinic introduces students to all aspects of current U.S. Supreme Court practice through live cases.
Working in teams, students will handle actual cases from seeking Supreme Court review to briefing on the merits. Classes will meet every week to discuss drafts of briefs and other papers students have prepared for submission. Students will be expected to identify candidates for Supreme Court review; draft petitions for certiori, amicus merits briefs and party merits briefs; and attend mootings and Supreme Court arguments.
