The team, consisting of Anastasia Eberle, Sebastian Mario Mosqueda and Simon Luca Wedemeyer, will compete against a team from the University of Tübingen in an oral moot court hearing in the field of private law in the semifinals on 11 July 2024 at the University of Giessen. The oral part of the competition takes place in knockout mode. If the team from the University of Bremen prevails the first round of hearings in the finales, it will immediately compete in a second moot court hearing with a modified case in the final.

The Justus-Liebe Moot Court is a student competition in the form of a moot court on German civil and civil procedural law. Based on a short case - this year in the field of ​​tenancy law - the participating teams write one brief: either a statement of claim or a statement of defense. The four teams that submitted the best briefs will compete against each other in oral hearings in the semi-finals. Two teams will act as the plaintiff's and the other two as the defendant's lawyers. The team from the University of Bremen will represent the plaintiff. This year, the three court hearings as part of the moot court will be held by the judge at the Federal Constitutional Court, Thomas Offenloch, by a representative of the Bar Association, Tanja V. Pfitzner, LL.M., and by Prof. Dr. Martin Gutzeit from the Justus Liebig University in Giessen.

The team from the University of Bremen was recruited from participants in the lecture “Praxisworkshops: Verfassen von Anwaltsschriftsätzen im Zivilprozess“ (Workshop: Drafting Lawyer's Briefs in German Civil Proceedings), which was held as a block seminar this summer semester by the German lawyer and US Attorney-at-law (NY) Sandra Gerdes, LL.M. Ms. Gerdes also supports the team from the University of Bremen as a coach with practical insides. The faculty hopes to be able to participate in the Justus Liebig Moot Court in the coming years.
