Mock Trial

At CAL many students participate in a program called Mock Trial. Mock trial is where schools all over the state receive a court case with all the witnesses' affidavits. In the spring there is a date set where all the schools involved have the mock court case against each other. Each school is on defense one time, and prosecution one time each playing roles such as witnesses and lawyers. There is actual judges who score you on how well you played your part, asked and answered questions, handled objections, and kept your composer. The best scores in the school move on to state mock trial.
