Dear all,

             The 2018 NYSBA High School Mock Trial Tournament is underway. The Justice Resource Center, NYC coordinator of this premier law-related competition, is currently recruiting volunteer judges.

            More than 90 schools from all five boroughs will compete at one of three courthouses in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens between February 27 to March 15, 2018. Serving as a judge requiers a time commitment of approximately three hours on a weekday evening, and prior knowledge of the case and tournament rules. Information about this year’s case, tournament rules, scoring guidelines and more can be found at

  Volunteer judges who are members in good standing of the New York State Bar Association and are also admitted to the New York State Bar for at least two years are eligible for up to three (3) CLE credits for their service. Past volunteers can receive CLE credits once every two years for their service in the Mock Trial Tournament. For more information, visit .

 Please see the attached application for complete list of dates. If you are interested in serving as a judge, please complete the application below and submit to DWollenberg@schools. or fax to (212) 580-2478 no later than January 9, 2018.  Please free to refer this invitation to any interested parties.
