Instructor: Tom Borcher
This program provides an opportunity to
watch a real trial as it unfolds. The
program leader will scout court calendars
to find an interesting trial, and a notice
with the time, date, and location will then
be sent to all who have registered. The
number of participants able to attend will be determined
by the size of the particular courtroom. Attendees will sit
through the trial and then meet to discuss the case, with
the hope of having at least one of the involved attorneys
join the group. A flexible mindset is a prerequisite, as
court calendars are very fluid and cases are often
settled or continued on the day a trial is scheduled to
begin. To provide timely notice to participants, a valid
email address is required.
