mock trials
Courtroom dress rehearsals
Mock trials are simulated court proceedings used for education or practice.
Law students conduct mock trials to learn courtroom procedure.
Attorneys use them to test arguments and anticipate weaknesses before actual litigation.
In schools, mock trials teach students about the legal system: Our civics class held a mock trial of a historical figure.
