Peter H. Holme, Jr. Barrister’s Cup Appellate Competition
March 06 - 08, 2009
Sturm College of Law
Barrister’s Cup is one of the largest competitions of the year. This is an excellent opportunity for first year students to practice their oral advocacy skills. Barrister’s Cup is a team competition, where the two team members draft a brief for an appellee or appellant and then present an oral argument to a judge. The competitors’ briefs and trial advocacy skills are factored into a final score. Additional awards are given for exceptional oral advocacy skills and for the best brief written. The final round is held in front of a panel of distinguished Colorado judges.

Brazil has some of the world’s best courts specially dedicated to environmental law, land use planning, indigenous peoples, real estate and development, and public health – ECTs created by Judge Freitas. Internationally respected, his public-interest lawsuits and prosecutions, court opinions, books, articles, and lectures have laid the foundation of Environmental Law in Brazil and influenced developments throughout Latin America. He is a consultant to the United Nations, World Conservation Union, and other public and public-interest groups, and lectures on Environmental Law around the world.
