Yesterday I took a night off from blogging because I was in Hartford, judging moot court at UConn Law School. This gives us practicing lawyers the rare opportunity to play judge. It’s a lot of fun, making the poor law students squirm. The case this year was a civil case, which made me feel more comfortable than most years, since criminal cases are the norm, and I don’t really know criminal law. It was actually an excellent problem, since there were good arguments on both sides of the issue. I have to confess that I tend to be harder on the poor student who happens to represent the side I don’t like. I can’t help myself but, of course, it’s not their fault that they drew that assignment.
