Hosting A National Mock Trial Competition
ABA ROLI will host one nationwide Mock Trial Competition with teams from private and public law schools across four judicial districts throughout the country. Select teams will litigate simulated criminal cases as “prosecutors” and “defense attorneys,” while appearing before “trial judges.” Active legal experts will evaluate the teams’ performance.. At the conclusion of the event, ABA ROLI will organize a week-long study tour to Puerto Rico for the winning team of the mock trial competition to learn about the criminal justice system in the U.S. (at the federal level).
