PAX Moot 2025 Edition
The PAX Moot case for the 2025 moot competition on private international law has been published. The 2025 Round is dedicated to Ulrich Huber, an influential Dutch jurist of the 1600s, who wrote a short treatise on the conflict of laws, Conflictu Legum Diversarum in Diversis Imperiis.
The Ulrich Huber Round of the competition explores important present-day matters: issues related to content placed on social media platforms, mental issues resulting from such activity, content moderation, and the content moderators’ dissatisfaction with their working conditions.
The case requires participants to answer questions of international jurisdiction of the court of first instance in Maastricht, the law applicable to the merits of the case, the recognition of a United Kingdom settlement in the Netherlands and its effects on the proceedings before the Maastricht court.
The moot competition has two phases: a written and an oral round. The written submission of the memorials is due on 16 March 2025. The oral round will take place between 9-11 April 2025.
More information about the competition, the schedule building up to the oral round, and the applicable rules for the Ulrich Huber Round are available on the PAX Moot website!
To all teams deciding to join the competition: Good luck in preparing the case!
