The Advocacy Trainer, a Manual for Supevisors, 2008 THE ADVOCACY TRAINER A Manual for Supervisors THE JUDGE ADVOCATE GENERAL’S LEGAL CENTER AND SCHOOL UNITED STATES ARMY – CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA 2008 FOREWORD TO “THE ADVOCACY TRAINER” “Practice is the best of all instructors.” – Publilius Syrus Train hard. Train often. Train as you fight. Train to exceed standards. Train with those who will be side by side with you when you’re in court and when you deploy. More importantly, train those who might not be located near other Judge Advocates once they arrive in theater. Ad­ vocacy skills can be learned. This publication will take you there, providing a wealth of opportu­ nity to train on virtually every aspect of trial advocacy. In the crucible of the courtroom, can you afford for anyone on your team not to know what your opponents already do? Your opponent has probably trained using the methods used in this book. It is too late, once a trial has begun, to hone cross examination skills, to refresh your recollection as to how to properly frame an objection, or to lay a foundation. We need to be ready well in advance of walking into a courtroom. As Judge Advocates faced with very real courtroom dramas, we don’t have the luxury of training up after the case has started. As Major General Altenburg noted in his original foreword to this book, it is not inciden­ tal that we are called Judge Advocates. This publication will help you in ways money can’t buy, to train to be better advocates. The training in this book is performance-oriented, designed to develop and hone the central skills of trial advocacy for counsel of all experience levels, on both sides of the bar. Challenge yourself and your team. Training, especially advocacy training, can be chal­ lenging and fun, but it must be challenging. Do not lower the bar. Our newest members of the JAG Corps have the potential and drive to excel. We owe them the opportunity to develop and stretch their capacity. They will not be content to merely meet minimum requirements. Training along the lines established in this book will guide them to future successes in the courtroom. Do not forget to continue challenging our more experienced counsel. We owe them developmental and sustainment training. In the process of sustaining their skills, they set an ex­ ample, both as advocates and as Soldiers, for our less experienced Judge Advocates. Your commitment to training is critical to our ability to maintain one of the best-trained courtroom forces in the world. This book is the product of the effort of many of our best and brightest. Take advantage of it. Now train! SCOTT C. BLACK Major General, U.S. Army The Judge Advocate General )/~ NOTE TO THE TRAINER Nothing beats the concentration of preparig for and trg a case. There are, however, many ways to get ready to tr those cases better. The materials in TH ADVOCACY TRAINR make it easier for you to train your counsel. They enable you to identifY a skill on which you want to trin counsel, select the module, follow the preparation instrctions, and conduct the training. Before your first session, read the Introduction, which suggests several methods for conducting the training. Then pick a module, set a date, and do some training! THE ADVOCACY TR provides a, not the exclusive method of tring counsel. Although nothg taes the place of rehearsing counsel before tral, this book enables you to train counsel beyond the issues that arse in parcular cases. Inovate whie using THE ADVOCACY TR. For example, while counsel can be used to play witness roles, consider invitig other parcipants, especially other professionals (law enforcement and medical personnel) who are likely to testifY in cour themselves; this can make your tTaining more realistic and give these parcipants valuable couroom preparation. In addition, you should treat each record of tral as a potential training package: review, tab, and copy portons that can be used to create situational training exercises. Use the scenarios in this book as they are wrtten, or adapt them to the needs of your counsel. The materials are suffciently flexible that you can adjust the demands, duration, and intensity of the training. And you can use them over and over. The modules can also be used to sustain the skills of more experienced counsel, as all counsel can always get sharper. In addition, of course, the paricipation of experienced counsel sets an example on two importnt levels: (1) how to perform better in cour, and (2) the value of traing to the already proficient. TH ADVOCACY TR represents the combined efforts of many judge advocates, not only the TJAGSA Crimial Law Deparent, its priar authors and editors, but also senior judge advocates and several members of the 45th Graduate Course. It is not a static package. Let us know what works and what doesn't. Also, let us know your needs. With your input, futue supplements wil be geared to the training needs of you and your counsel.

CONCEPT. A. These materials provide supervisors of trial and defense counsel with an informal and entertaining means of training subordinates and assessing their fundamental trial advocacy skills. In the spirit of “hip pocket training,” this book provides Chiefs of Justice and Senior Defense Counsel with a tool to enhance training conducted on a short or no-notice basis. The objective of this training is to maximize time spent practicing the skills necessary for effective advocacy, and to minimize the time counsel spend role playing or memorizing hypothetical fact patterns. B. Additionally, by providing supervisors with necessary materials, the manual enables supervisors to devote their energies to teaching counsel and assessing subordinates’ performances, rather than developing advocacy training from scratch. II. STRUCTURE. A. The Training Module. The training module for each advocacy skill is generally the same. Each module contains the following: 1. Supervisor’s Guide. This guide provides an overview of the advocacy skill and provides specific instructions for conducting the advocacy skill drills. A-1 2. Counsel Handout. Each training module contains a Counsel Handout that you should photocopy and distribute prior to each training session. The handout includes: a brief introduction that explains the purpose of the training, instructions for any necessary preparation by counsel, the keys to success for the advocacy skill highlighted, and a reference list for counsel’s independent study. 3. Evidence. Each training module contains the Evidence (if needed) for counsel use during the training. Items such as sworn statements or physical evidence (checks or other business records) are included if required by the skill drill. 4. Sample Solution. Each training module contains Sample Solutions that you can use in conjunction with the critique that you conduct after each training session.

  • Trial Advocacy Manual About the Manual
    Trial Advocacy Manual About the Manual This manual contains the National District Attorneys Association’s (NDAA) Trial Advocacy method in a book form. The NDAA method has been taught in several different courses including Boot Camp, Trial Advocacy 1, Trial Advocacy 2, Cross-Examination, and the Career Prosecutor Course. This manual is intended to be a best practice guide for prosecutors at all levels of experience. It is the hope of the Committee that this book will be read cover-to-cover at the beginning of a prosecutor’s career. Then, as one’s career progresses, the manual can serve as a quick reference guide to review specific trial advocacy skills. We hope the manual will be well-read, the pages dog-eared, text underlined, and the margins note-filled. Use this book! This manual is written for a national audience. Some of the advice and techniques may be too aggressive for some jurisdictions and not aggressive enough for other jurisdictions. The manual reflects advice and techniques which will be applicable to most situations confronted by prosecutors in the courtrooms of the country. However, some of the advice and techniques may not be applicable or appropriate in your home jurisdiction. Your trial work must be appropriate for where you prosecute cases. Therefore, it is important for you to know the procedures, rules, and caselaw of your jurisdiction. Apply the advice and techniques which are permissible in your jurisdiction. When the advice and techniques presented in this manual conflict, feel free to adapt the advice and techniques in this manual to reflect your local practices.

  • DRAFT SYLLABUS Civil Trial Advocacy Sec. 2 (Course No
    DRAFT SYLLABUS Civil Trial Advocacy sec. 2 (Course No. 245.2) This three-unit, fast-paced course is designed to turn you from law student to trial advocate in one semester. It is taught by U.S. District Judge Jeffrey S. White, an award-winning teacher who has taught trial advocacy classes at Boalt for many years, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Tracie L. Brown, a Boalt graduate who has tried several civil and criminal cases to verdict in federal court. In addition, students will have at least two meetings with Virginia Abascal, a courtroom presentation skills expert who has worked with numerous students in Judge White’s classes in prior years. We hope this course will be an exciting and unique experience in your law school education. During the semester, students will prepare and present all aspects of a trial, from opening statement to closing argument. Students will be required to provide and prepare their own witnesses, and to critique their own and each others’ performances. The final exam will consist of a four-hour mock trial (conducted in front of federal judges) and related written submissions. The final exam will constitute 50% of each student’s grade, with the remaining 50% comprised of in-class participation and performances, as well as written pre-trial submissions and critiques, with an emphasis on improvement throughout the semester. Students will do a live presentation each week that will be videotaped and uploaded to the Law School’s website for each student to review and self-critique. The course will have its first session at Boalt, but will then transition to the federal courthouse in San Francisco (3 blocks from the Civic Center BART/Muni station) so students can experience trial advocacy in the courtroom, including use of electronic evidence presentation technology.

Thomas: Practical Training in Advocacy: A Proposal PRACTICAL TRAINING IN ADVOCACY: A PROPOSAL Ralph C. Thomas* For a number of years, but particularly since the end of the Second World War, the law schools have been under a drumfire of criticism for not giving their students practical training. A relatively common strain is that not enough training for the courtroom is provided. It is to this criticism that this study is directed. Whether it be of central or peripheral importance in the preparation of a student for the legal profession, understanding and competence in court is of some moment. A comparison is often drawn between training in law and training in medicine. This comparison is, for the most part, unprofitable. In reality there is little correspondence between the two disciplines and even less in the manner of teaching appropriate to each. The apprehension of basic materials is essentially the same. It is in their application that popular criticism gives the palm to the medical profession.
