Mock Trial Judges Needed in Albuquerque and Las Cruces

The New Mexico Middle School Mock Trial Program needs judges. The trials will be held Nov. 11-12 at the Bernalillo County Metropolitan Court in Albuquerque. The new Mock Trial Program is an innovative, hands‐on experience in the law for middle school students in grades seven and eight. This inaugural year we will have 20 teams from all over our state come to Albuquerque to try a case and learn about our judicial system. The students, along with their teacher advisors and attorney coaches will spend a lot of time researching, studying and preparing a hypothetical courtroom trial involving issues that are important and interesting to young people. Please sign up at https://civicvalues.org/mock-trial/registration/middle-school-judge-volunteer-registration/ by Nov. 1, 2022.

The Gene Franchini New Mexico High School Mock Trial Competition also needs judges. The qualifier competitions will be held Feb. 17-18, 2023 in Albuquerque and Las Cruces at the Bernalillo County Metropolitan Court in Albuquerque and the Third Judicial District Court in Las Cruces. Please sign up at https://civicvalues.org/mock-trial/registration/judge-volunteer-registration/ by Feb. 4, 2023.
