This course is designed as a seminar to introduce students to the legislative process and the role of lawyers in legislative advocacy and policymaking. The course will offer students a fundamental overview of the processes and steps for the enactment of legislation, the manner in which legislative texts and legislative history are important to lawyers and the courts, and the connection between lawyers, legislation and the creation of public policy. In addition, students will be directly exposed to lawmaking in action by attending legislative hearings at the NH State House, meeting with state legislators, and interacting with lobbyists who advocate before the state legislature. Through practical exercises, students will develop skills in conducting policy analysis as background for lawmaking, drafting written testimony, and making oral presentations to legislative committees. This class is particularly appropriate for students who want to enhance their exposure to lawyering for social justice.

This national moot court competition that focuses on issues of trademark and unfair competition, is organized by INTA and members of the Saul Lefkowitz Moot Court Competition Committee. Students write a brief and argue the case in regional and national competitions before a panel of volunteer attorneys and judges from various district and other specialized courts (TTAB, USPTO and the Federal Circuit). Students must apply, try out, and be accepted by the Moot Court Board for this traveling team.
