Attorney volunteers needed
Volunteer attorneys are needed to serve as judges and bailiffs for the 2013 Michigan High School Mock Trial Tournament, presented by the State Bar of Michigan and the Michigan Center for Civic Education, state finals March 23 in Lansing. The Tournament requires 180 volunteer judges and bailiff/time-
keepers.
This year’s case surrounds the alleged defamation of a mock-trial participant. The plaintiff, member of an up-and-coming high-school mock-trial team, alleges that the defendant, a rival school, made defamatory statements about the plaintiff in the defendant’s online newspaper — alleging that the plaintiff appeared to be texting his coach during the competition. Accord-
ing to the article, the plaintiff’s closing argument was unusually effective, and a review of the score sheets shows that the closing argument made the difference. As a result of the claimed cheating, the plaintiff lost a scholarship with a prestigious university.
