Wagoner and Molnar: How Attorneys Judge Collegiate Mock Trials 42 Speaker & Gavel 2012 How Attorneys Judge Collegiate Mock Trials Ruth R. Wagoner & R. Adam Molnar Abstract In collegiate mock trial competition, practicing attorneys who don’t coach or know the participating schools judge the students' persuasive skill. Fifty-six attorneys were interviewed after they judged collegiate mock trials. They were asked which student behaviors they rewarded, which behaviors they punished, and overall which team presented more effectively. The attorneys' responses were grouped into thematic categories and arranged by priorities. Attorneys were consistent in what they said they valued in student performances. Inter- viewees' answers to the question about overall team performance were compared with the numeric ballots. If global assessment were included, it would change the outcome of a substantial number of trials, which raises the question if such an item would have the same effect on any graded competition.

  • Steps in a Mock Trial
    STEPS IN A MOCK TRIAL 1. The Opening of the Court Either the Clerk of the Court of the judge will call the Court to order. When the judge enters, all the participants should remain standing until the judge is seated. The case will be announced, i.e., "The Court will now hear the case of vs. ." The judge will then ask the attorney for each side if they are ready. A representative of each team will introduce and identify each member of the team and the role each will play. 2. Opening Statement (1) Prosecution (in criminal cases) Plaintiff (in civil cases) The prosecutor in a criminal case (or plaintiff' s attorney in a civil case) summarizes the evidence which will be presented to prove the case. (2) Defendant (in criminal or civil case) The defendant' s attorney in a criminal or civil case summarizes the evidence for the Court which will be presented to rebut the case the prosecution has made. 3. Direct Examination by Plaintiff The prosecutors (plaintiff' s attorneys) conduct the direct examination of its own witnesses. At this time, testimony and other evidence to prove the prosecution' s (plaintiff' s) case will be represented. The purpose of direct examination is to allow the witness to state the facts in support of the case. Note: The attorneys for both sides, on both direct and cross examination, should remember that their only function is to ask questions; attorneys themselves may not testify or give evidence, and they must avoid phrasing questions in a way that might violate this rule.

  • Call to Action Here
    October 19, 2020 Dear Dean Goluboff, UVA Law administrators, and the greater UVA Law community: We, the members of the Black Law Students Association at UVA Law, along with a coalition of our peer organizations, call for swift and holistic action to create a more inclusive and dynamic environment for current and future Black students, faculty, and staff. As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of UVA BLSA’s founding, we are deeply reflective of the rich history of advocacy that precedes us and the foundation on which we stand. Over this half century, UVA BLSA has led several initiatives to increase Black student enrollment and faculty presence at the law ​ school. Our unwavering commitment to equity, inclusion, and community pushes us to revisit our previous calls for transformative initiatives and substantive change. We find it appropriate and important to notify you of the positive changes made since our last statement: ● Renamed Withers-Brown Hall to Brown Hall in the law school ● Recruited and included a group of students in the faculty interviewing process ● Increased numbers and availability of courses that directly address or are focused on racial justice to be held during this academic year ● Created and hosted more institutionally sponsored events focused on racial justice ● Increased career service outreach, accessibility, and resources for Black and minority students We are encouraged by this progress but acknowledge that this is by no means the end of our work. To that end, we look forward to continuing to work with the administration and the greater UVA Law community to achieve our goals.
