The first round of the Oxford University Press National Mooting Competition saw a team from Wolverhampton University take on Derby in a home fixture.
Sitting as a single Judge "Court of Appeal" Wolverhampton Law Society President Richard Ennis resisted the temptation to strike out Derby's case after a delayed train saw them turn up late for the hearing.
Speaking after the event Richard said:-
"I heard legal argument concerning a contractual dispute involving a million pound diamond tiara the property of one "Camilla Windsor", who had entrusted the encrusted to "Diamond Geezers LTD" a company claiming to specialise in renovating such items. When Geezers damaged the valuable heirloom litigation followed.
In the event I allowed the Appeal but awarded the tie to Derby. I was impressed by the standard of advocacy from both teams so Wolves fans should not feel disheartened by the result."
