While most criminal cases are resolved via plea bargain, it is imperative to understand the ins-and-outs of the District Court trial session. This seminar guides you through the major aspects of a trial from motions in Limine to closings. The panel of trial attorneys and a District Court Judge guide you through the case and you act as jury.
Unlike the jury, you have the opportunity to ask questions after the verdict. Case theory, witness preparation, and strategy are all open for discussion. Find out how experienced trial attorneys prepare their case for trial, from the day of arraignment.
