eh, we didn't win one match...we won the actual cases but lost on points :(

a mock trialer is a person doing mock trials.

mock trial is pretend court cases for students. It's really a lot of fun.

we lost first two one second 2...but its stuoid coz we were always prosec for criminal and defence for civil so we always had to prove BARD and defend against BOP... also most cases were totally to one side, so u lost points coz u coldnt object...or had stupid judges who dont let u object to brown v dunn

^ lol yep, as a witness myself we get really *passionate* with our cases.. one time a judge (or whatever they're called) was really impressed with my friend's witness-acting..

Thats bullshit...how come you get to do mock trials and we dont? Is it like an inter-schools challenge thing? I'll tell ya why we cant do it! Its because Carr and his commos dont want kids living in regional areas having the same opportunities as those living in the city!!! Its unfairs I'se tells ya!!!

first of all, thorrnydevil, you are rather hung up about this whole regional area thing aren't you?? and i would hardly call port macquarie regional.

i loved mock trial, soooo much fun!!! i did it last year, i was 1st barrister, we actually came 3rd in the state. (btw, i come from a 'regional area' of 8000, and we don't even do legal studies at our school) ke he, we got to go to the grand finals, which was so much fun, and in the finals (for those of you doing it this year) the barristers have to dress up......wigs, the whole lot!! so cool!!!

has anyone noticed how heaps of the magistrates all look the same?? you know, old, male, grey, with several chins???

fuck me a mock trial thread!
i fucken miss mock trial so hard. it was so vicious when we did it. some people will say that this is a lie but i swear its true (neigh).

we went up against this other school (eden) and in exaination in chief this girl on the defence fucked up real hard and forgot her stuff.
anyways i got up and decided to be really hard on her in cross examination. i got really agressive with her and the judge got stuck into me. anyways i didnt stop and the poor girl got really upset and defensive.
in the end she had no idea what she was saying and she admited to her crime. haha (it was non admisable because i verballed her BULLSHIT)
anyway after it she was so stressed she hyperventilated and she had to get taken to hospital and it was real bad!!! ha ha i almost killed the poor girl.
those were the days. i miss mock trial so much

Mock Trial was great! We did it last year, I did mooted this year. I was the crappiest witness, so I always stuck with Barrister One. Ah, the memories...
