1Ls & 2Ls: Volunteer as a Mock Trial Witness: Students can volunteer to act as witnesses in the final trial of the mock trial competition on Saturday, November 4th between 10:00am and 12:00pm. This is an exciting opportunity to learn more about the mock trial program and to see the best advocates in the law school fight it out for the title of Champions. The volunteers will be led through a direct examination by the attorney competitors, followed by a cross-examination from the opposing team. You will be provided with the case packet and will be told which witness you will be portraying. Interested students can email the Board at lawmocktrial@lawnet.uci.edu.
