Shannon McManus, a sec- ond-year law student wbo acted as one of the attorneys, said the trial involved a 16- year-old motorist pulled over for suspected drunk driving. 'There are many facts in sup- port of both the prosecution and defence, and you bave to be prepared to handle cither because you neyer know who you'll be arguing for." she explained. "In this particular case for the defence, the teen bad swerved to avoid a dog and subsequent- ly attracted the attention of a patrolling officer. He was also given no format coordination test and no blood test was taken either." 'Me Reding contingent acted in defence of the teen and won the case, but Iost f0 the Windsor-ares school via point allotment. Teams are judged on every aspect of the trial, from open- ing and closing statements f0 examination and cross-exami- nation of witnesses. The ability f0 think on one's feet, Connie Buna said, is the biggest challenge involved in mock trials. Added the grade 12 student, "you have f0 be able to switcb gears on a moment's notice. " She said the teamn was put up at a fancy Al1.1 5 5 sliU ' during, the twso-day wmîmpcmi- tion. Her team also competed in the Catbolic Schools Inter- Board Law Toumament. They finisbed second to Burlington's Assumption during the May 10 regionals and just missed a sec- ond berth to an Ontario final. Catholic teams argued a dou- ble-homicide case, relating to a store owner charged witm shooting two youtbs. Reding studcnt Karen Hurlcy said she learned first-band bow much work lawyers put into their cases. "For eacb hour of competi- tion, we put in about a month of preparation. We devoted several weekends to practice as well as many early mornings before school started," she recalled. Fellow students Nicole Bawden and Lisa Reddy acted as lawyers wbile Robert Carter and Lee Sperduti were the wit- nesses. For Mr. Hourigan, the team's 1997 efforts were a welcome send-off as he prepares for an upcoming transfer. "This was the best a Bisbop Reding teamn bas ever done," he said. And for Ms McManus, the mock trial experience bas "solidified" ber decision to pur- sue a career in law.
