Charles Hamilton Houston National Moot Court Team
HONORING OUR HISTORY
Each year, the Charles Hamilton Houston National Moot Court team hosts our annual William B. Bryant-Luke C. Moore Invitational Moot Court Competition.
The Bryant-Moore Competition is in honor of the Honorable William B. Bryant and the Honorable Luke Charles Moore. Judge Bryant, a 1936 graduate of Howard Law, became the first African American Chief Justice of the U.S. District of the District of Columbia.
President Kennedy appointed Judge Moore a Chief U.S. Marshal for the District of Columbia, making him the first African-American to serve in that capacity since Frederick Douglass. Then, President Nixon appointed Judge Moore to the Superior Court where he became a senior judge. The Bryant-Moore competition is dedicated to honoring both Judge Bryant’s and Judge Moore’s legacies. The Inaugural Bryant Moore Invitational Moot Court Competition will be held February 28th and March 1, 2014, in Washington, D.C.
