Mock court competition for first year LLB-students
2005-11-08
The Faculty of Law at the University of the Free State (UFS) presented the first mock court competition for first year LLB-students in the Appeal Court in Bloemfontein. In the past this type of competition was presented by other universities in the country only for senior students and never before in the Appeal Court. This year the UFS presented the first competition which other universities were invited to. These were the Universities of Rhodes and Pretoria. The Afrikaans competition was won by the UFS, while the University of Rhodes made a clean sweep in the English competition.
