|What is a Mock Trial?| |Mock Trial is a made up case to teach
younger students about the law and courtroom procedure.| |What
is the difference between Defense, Plaintiff, and Prosecution?|
|There are two sides in all cases. In a criminal case, the side
that is bringing the case to court is the prosecution, and the
side that is being accused is the Defense. In a civil case, the
side that is bringing the case to court is the Plaintiff and the
side that is being accused is the Defense.| |What is an
objection?| |An objection is when one lawyer feels that the
testimony of the witness is either false or not relevant to the
case. The judge can either rule with the objecting lawyer and
say "objection sustained" or rule against the objecting lawyer
and say "objection overruled."| |People needed to perform a Mock
