On February 22 & 23 our law clerk, Skye Lowry, competed in the Fordham University School of Law Invitational for the 19th Annual Vis International Commercial Arbitration Pre-Moot in New York, New York. Skye is in her third and final year of law school and has been a part of the Vis Arbitration Tribunal at the University of South Carolina Rice School of Law. This competitive team squares off against teams from all over the world in mock arbitration tribunals, settling contractual commercial dispute scenarios.
At this particular pre-moot, Skye and her “co-counsel” went head-to-head against current world champions Bucerias Law School (Germany) and also the University of Munster (Germany). Other members of the USC team faced off against teams from Canada, Mexico, Panama, Germany, and the United States.
Pre-moot competitions like this one are key for helping teams prepare for the moot competition being held in Vienna, Austria in April. Skye will be traveling with her team to Vienna to compete against 300 institutional teams representing over 60 different countries.
