With an emphasis on persuasive legal writing at different stages in a criminal case, this course utilizes experiential learning techniques to teach written and oral advocacy skills. During the semester, you will author several pre-trial motions, including motions to dismiss, motions to suppress evidence, and in limine motions. In addition, students will conduct regular mock hearings throughout the semester based on their written briefs. At the conclusion, students will be positioned to excel as certified law students in criminal clerkships.


Attendance at the first class is mandatory for all currently enrolled and waitlisted students; any currently enrolled or waitlisted students who are not present on the first day of class (without prior permission of the instructor) will be dropped. The instructor will continue to take attendance throughout the add/drop period and anyone who moves off the waitlist into the class must continue to attend or have prior permission of the instructor in order not to be dropped.
