UB LAW SCHOOL GEARS UP FOR SIXTH ANNUAL TRIAL COMPETITION
Nearly 130 law students from 32 colleges and universities descended on the courtrooms in the Buffalo City Court building on Nov. 13 to test their legal mettle and wits at the University at Buffalo Law School's sixth annual Buffalo-Niagara National Mock Trial Competition.
Seventy-three mock trials were conducted before more than 150 local lawyers and judges who volunteered to serve as evaluators in the national competition running through Nov. 16. This year's case involved the murder of a law school dean, shot to death in his office. The defendant was a law professor who was the dean's rival for the attentions of a popular law school co-ed.
In addition to UB Law School, the competition included students from 32 colleges and universities including Fordham University, Pace University, St.John's University and Temple University.
