Summary/Abstract: The author of this paper analyzes Moot Court as a teaching method in law school practice and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of this method. Although the moot court teaching method originated in the Anglo-Saxon legal education, over the past years it has been accepted by the universities of the European-continental legal tradition. By participating in moot court competition, students are provided with in-depth knowledge of different legal issues, related to different legal systems and sources of law. Moot court competitions also contribute to promoting inter-university collaboration of different regions. The Faculty of Law, University of Niš, takes pride in a long-standing history of participation in different moot court competitions. The year 2023 was another successful moot court year for the students of the Law Faculty in Niš. In this paper, the author presents the achievements of the LF Niš moot court students at two prestigious moot court competitions: Human Rights Moot Court Competition (the Regional and European rounds) and the National Moot Court Competition “Condemn Discrimination” (Serb. ”Osudi diskriminaciju“).
