8. Judge and judgment

This chapter deals with the moot judge and judgment. It addresses the following questions: How is the moot judge's assessment divided between the moot and the law? Is it possible to lose on the law and win on the moot? What actions should be taken if the moot judge has misunderstood a point? What actions should be taken if a moot judge's manner is rude? Can the moot judge and my opponents be interrupted or corrected? What actions should be taken if the moot judge's question is misunderstood? How can judicial questions be turned to an advantage? Will a moot judge make a ruling on the arguments before the conclusion of the moot?
