About the Competition

The National Native American Law Students Association (NNALSA) Moot Court Competition is an annual appellate advocacy competition sponsored by the National Native American Law Students Association. The competition topic presents issues on Federal Indian law and tribal governance. Each year, the competition attracts local NALSA teams from around the country to compete, network, and develop lasting friendships with other individuals who wish to practice Indian law. Each team collaborates to write a brief presenting one side of the argument and then argues both sides at least once in the first two rounds of the competition. 
​
The problem is released in the fall, and the brief is due in late December or early January. The national competition occurs in March, with teams advancing through preliminary, semi-finals, and final competition rounds. 

For more information about the NNALSA Moot Court Competition, see the competition website.
