We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.

Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
Based on this year’s rounds, Jindal delivered a marked improvement: logistics were smoother (accommodation, timings, venues), and, more importantly, the judging quality appeared significantly more consistent and credible.
For a competition like Jessup—where national qualifiers are the critical gateway to the international rounds—administration and judging integrity matter as much as logistical efficiency. Teams prepare for months, often 3–5, under demanding conditions. Poor organisation at the national stage is not a minor problem; it diminishes the value of that preparation and the legitimacy of the process.
Would love to hear perspectives from others who participated, judged, or coached this year: how did you find JGLS’s administration and judging compared to previous years?
