The Georgetown University Law Center's Supreme Court Institute "seeks to promote understanding in law students, faculty, the legal profession, and the nation of the history, significance, and dynamics of Supreme Court decision-making." The Moot Court Program arranges practice sessions that allow attorneys to prepare for oral arguments before the Court.

Run by the Cato Center, the website provides access to many of the center's publications, including legal briefs and issues of the Cato Supreme Court Review (coverage beginning 2001).

The Center has a moot court program for lawyers arguing before the Ohio Supreme Court, the Sixth Circuit, or the U.S. Supreme Court, and it holds symposia on constitutional law.
