    defendant's opening statement

    Before I explain what happened, let me tell you a little bit about my client. Shamrock University School of Law is located right here in town, just a few miles south of this courthouse. They have been teaching young people how to become competent, ethical lawyers for over eighty years. We pride ourselves on our ability to train outstanding lawyers. To teach the students how to effectively represent their clients and our society. We are especially proud of the trial advocacy program, where we teach law students to be trial lawyers. You will hear that under the leadership of Dean McMurry, the trial advocacy program of this school is one of the top 5 in the nation. Dean McMurry will explain that as part of the trial advocacy class each student participates in mock trials. They try realistic lawsuits in a realistic setting. In order to provide this realism, the Dean invited experienced local attorneys to teach the classes and invited some local judges to preside over the mock trials. And that is why Judge Birdsong was in our courtroom that April morning. You see, he wasn 't actually invited to participate. Judge Birdsong was a…
