The UCI Law Mock Trial Finals were held Nov. 5. First place went to Angel Camino and Marissa Oxman, the same team that won last year. Second place went to Nora Stefanos and Jess Krause. This year, students argued a civil case: Allen v. Neptune,
a wrongful-death lawsuit based on a scuba-diving accident. Witnesses
included the victim's spouse, a scuba expert, the dive leader, and a
meteorologist. UCI Law will begin sending teams of students to
participate in national Mock Trial competitions during this academic
year. Special thanks are extended to Justin Bernstein, the Mock Trial coach, and to Mock Trial judges John Thornton, Thy Bui, Steve Kaufman, Eve Brackmann, Kevin Snyder, Michelle Molko, Ben Cutchshaw and David Outwater. More about UCI Law's Mock Trial program.
