"Like a battle, a trial is fought, in the hallowed halls of a courthouse. Like a warrior, a lawyer exercises her own physical and mental preparation. And like a champion, the winner takes all - sometimes life itself.
Trials date back as far as mankind has known conflict. Images of the great philosopher and lawyer Cicero arguing in capital trials to hundreds of citizens in the Quaestiones perpetuae ("standing jury courts") of Rome are evoked. As are bloody accounts of fierce Germanic warriors, “Sharing the Sun;” perpendicular to the sun so that neither has an advantage in trial by combat. King Charles VI authorized a judicial duel between Sir Jean de Carrouges and squire Jacques Le Gris over the alleged rape of Carrouges wife. As the Royal Court looked onward, Carrouges stabbed his opponent in the throat with his dagger, claiming victory. A loss in these cases meant death."

"For 2004 Hudson High School graduate Sarah Hulburt, now a practicing attorney in Summit County, the opportunity to learn about trial law by participating in mock trials was the impetus for forming a new club at her alma mater. The Hudson Mock Trial Club, which started in September, held its first scrimmage mock trial match at the Summit County Court Room of Judge Tammy O'Brien recently, and Hulburt had the opportunity to help other Hudson students learn what it was like to actively participate in the courtroom."
