Judge College Mock Trial for Pro Bono Credit (2Ls, 3Ls)

Please consider serving your profession in an enjoyable way by judging one or more of the four rounds at the National Intercollegiate Mock Trial Tournament to be held Friday, March 18^th through Sunday, March 20^th, 2016 at the Shelby County Courthouse in Memphis. This year we especially need your help in judging and recruiting other judges because we are unable to offer CLE credit. However, 2L or 3L law students may obtain Pro Bono Credit.  Memphis has always been considered a desirable place to compete because of the quality of our judge pool and we would like to continue this reputation. We also do not want to see the city lose this tournament.
