Mock Trial

The Mock Trial is a high school competition where students portray attorneys, witnesses, court clerks and bailiffs in a hypothetical court case. Students will compete in front of a Madera County judge with attorneys from throughout the Valley scoring the competition.
Trials are held in January and February of each year. The championship trial is held in February with the top two scoring teams competing head-to-head to be named Madera County champion and advance to the state competition.
