The Summer Trial Academy is an intensive, two-week trial advocacy course that runs this year from Monday August 14th through Friday August 25th. The class meets as a group in afternoon sessions over nine days, \u00a0Monday through Friday the first week and Monday through Thursday the second week, from 1:30 p.m. until 4:00 p.m. The afternoon sessions involve \u00a0lecture, discussion and demonstration on the various trial skills. The class also meets in small group evening sessions over seven days \u2013 Monday through Thursday the first week and Monday through Wednesday the second week from 5:30 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. Four students are assigned to each small group with at least two practicing trial lawyers on hand to coach, teach and mentor them. The idea is to get ready to try a full-day jury trial in front of a real judge in that judge’s courtroom at the Summit County Common Pleas Court on Friday August 25th beginning at 8:30 a.m. The entire entering first year class will serve as jurors and witnesses as part of their orientation to law school. This course is like no other in the country.<\/p>\n
