- W214016041 abstract "n the world of appellate advocacy, oral argument is the reward for the hard work you put into writing your brief. There is nothing more intellectually challenging and satisfying than engaging in a productive discussion about your case with a panel of appellate judges. Your level of enjoyment, however, is usually directly proportional to the effectiveness of your preparation. Preparing properly, of course, is easier said than done even for experienced practitioners.

The form of this guidance varies from case to case and judge to judge. The court’s questions will often focus on the subjects on which the judges want guidance. Therefore, in preparing for argument, you must anticipate these concerns and formulate articulate responses. You may falter during oral argument if your preparation consists only of rereading the briefs and trial record and assuming that you can repeat some text to answer the court’s questions. An attorney who does nothing more than study the briefs and the record can probably explain the issues in the case but is ill prepared to answer difficult and probing questions about it. Reviewing the briefs and trial record is always a good starting point, but thorough preparation requires a much more active approach. Knowing the trial record inside and out should be a major focus of your preparation. If you do not have time to read through the" @default.
