Texas Invitational Mock Trial Tournament This fall, the University of Texas School of Law once again proved its commitment to the advancement of trial advocacy skills by sponsoring the First Annual Texas Invitational Mock Trial Tournament. Traditionally, UT students had participated in the Thclcn, Marrin, Johnson and Bridges Intcrscholastic Mock Trial Competition in the fall. The fall of 1991, however, was the last year that competition was held, so the UT Board of Advocates stepped in to fill the gap. The Texas Invitational Tournament will be held in the fall of each coming year at the University of Texas. It is a statewide tournament and all Texas law schools are invited to participate. This first year of the competition was extremely successful, drawing teams from all across Texas including Baylor University, the University of Houston, South Texas, Southern Methodist University, Texas Wesleyan University and, of course, the University of'Texas. All of the schools sent two teams each, so it by Laura Parchman was quite a turnout. The University of Texas prepared two teams of both second- and third-year law students. Michael Ramirez, Sally Starnes, Mike Ortega and Elizabeth Camarillo represented UT on Team One, and Robert May, Kim Deck, Tracy Sneed and William Heyer were on Team Two. Each team member had an opportunity to compete as an advocate, with one pair always acting as plaintiffs attorneys, and one pair as defense attorneys. When not acting as advocates, team members witnessed for each other, making each stage of the competition a true team effort. Alternates for the tournament competition were Sandra Garza and Matthew Hcn-neman, who are both members of the Board of Advocates. This year’s tournament was held the weekend of November 13-15, 1992. Upon arriving in town, the teams had a chance to meet with each other and talk about the upcoming competition at a small reception held in the Main Lobby of the UT Law School. The next day, the competition began with three preliminary rounds. Each team had a chance to compete three times, and four teams went on to the semi-final round after reseeding from the preliminary rounds. Teams from Baylor University and the University of Houston went on to the final round, where Baylor took the First Annual Texas Invitational trophy despite fierce competition from Houston. UT team members vow to take the trophy in next year’s Texas Invitational. Pkttot An IKcmj, Texas Invitational Mock Trial — 9
