Judge our 14th Annual Patent Moot Court Competition

Calling IP Attorneys — Come Judge our 14th Annual Patent Moot Court Competition taking place via Zoom on April 14th and 16th, 2025. This is a memorable capstone experience for the students but it requires your expertise.

This year’s group is larger than usual and that means I need more judges. No Presidential Appointment is necessary, but you do need a JD, IP law experience, and most importantly passion for supporting the next generation of attorneys. Connect with talented law students and other judges passionate about patent and IP law; Engage with complex, current issues in patent law; etc.

I have modeled the competition after a recent pair of PTAB final written decisions in Meta v. VL (VideoLabs), both of which include a dissenting opinion by Judge McKone.  The appeals are currently pending before the Federal Circuit with both sides expected to file cross appeals.

I’ll provide a comprehensive judge’s brief and preparation meeting so that you don’t have to.

Multiple time slots available (evenings on April 14th and 16th)
