- Carmel High School takes on Stevenson School for the Mock Trial Finals at the Monterey County Courthouse.
The Mock Trial Program is an exciting law-related educational program that introduces high school students (grades 9-12) to the American legal system. Mock trials are structured like "real" court trials and follow the same rules. The program pairs students with mentors from the legal community. Through one-on-one interactions with attorney coaches, a student's understanding of the law is greatly enhanced.Through role-playing, students gain an understanding of our judicial system--what roles judges, lawyers, juries and witnesses play in the system. Additionally, students develop critical thinking and public speaking skills and a working knowledge of our legal practices and procedures.
These kids did so great! I am in 8th grade and I have a Mock trial today. I am a prosecution attorney doing a cross exam and closing argument. I am hoping to do as good as these guys did!
update: it's a few weeks after the debate...my team VERY unfairly lost. everyone agrees that we should have won, we absolutely crushed it!
It’s mind blowing these are high school students. No 1 said that part yet. Impressive
These kids are amazing. I enjoyed watching every moment of this mock trial. They did a great job.
Thoroughly enjoyed watching the Mock Trial Finals between Carmel High School and Stevenson School! It's evident that the students poured a significant amount of effort into preparing for their roles, showcasing not just their understanding of legal procedures but also their public speaking skills. While the trial had its Hollywood-esque moments and the portrayals may not fully capture the gravitas seen in real courtrooms, the educational value and entertainment provided were unmistakable. Kudos to all the students involved for their dedication and hard work. It’s clear that such experiences are invaluable in understanding the legal system and developing critical thinking. Well done to everyone involved!
I’m a mental health professional. I wish we did this for counseling at this age level … mock therapy

Well I noted that it was very good moment and its normally will always challenge it you, during the process of learning by practice and practice by learning.
Can you give me some tips?
I continued enjoyed watching the way how the keep defense
❤ no BS. Just honest facts. Our future. Hopefully some of our current court houses and law practitioners can take lessons on stating just the facts.
Was waiting for someone to stand out with a greeting aside from “Good afternoon, your Honor.”
I have my mock trial tomorrow and I'm the bailiff
They did great, bravo!
Nice work guys 👌👌👌
Amazing!
what a brilliant bunch of counsels 👏
This is amazing to watch
it feels sooo real. Good job y'all;)
Amazing work. I wish my school did these things.
A lot of times if judge wants to be unfair he will not make a ruling on the objection, so you have to make the judge make a ruling for the record.
Nice
go Sandia Prep for next year!
wow they are brilliant ! They are better than some real lawyers ive seen 😂
If I am a defense attorney doing a pretrial motion, do I have to quote other cases? Or does arguing my point suffice... I notice here they have alternate examples of similar cases to back up their standing and opinion.
This Mock Trial competition is held by the Teach Democracy/Constitutional Rights Foundation. They provide a case packet that includes the pretrial arguments both sides should be making, including a set of cases with similar issues for attorneys to reference. You are scored on your use of the cases. Judges will also ask many questions about the cases provided, as the judge does here. So, no, making the argument on its own is not enough. You need to back it up with case law. Not doing so would severely lower your score.
basically you don't 100% have to quote them but you will be pop quizzed on them throughout the course of the case
what did he choose
I have a mock trial soon, im not in it, but im excited to witness it!
Where !??

How are y'all doing this in high school?!?! Please let's talk
The verdict should have been guilty 😊 loved the prosecution argument.

Why are there so many leading questions in direct examination
it’s not leading since they r open-ended questions so witnesses are allowed to say anything they want
Guess to ensure that they really know what they are talking about and not pure memorization
Kourtney Kardashian im in deathrow

Dang right son
Woot woot! Right here! Watched prosecution last night and finishing defense tonight!
