Problems of Court Action Discussed By Student After Losing at Mock Trial This is the article by David Paxman in the recent Scotchman contest David was awarded $25.00 by a Nephi man who remains anonymous, prize-winni- AN AMERICAN IN THE COURTS OF JUSTICE When I first learned from our history teacher that our class would be conducting a mock trial on the issue of what had caused the Civil war, I thought it would be an easy assignment, in that there would be no test on it and no prescribed amount of research involved. When the students were chosen to be on the defense and the prosecuting sides, everyone wanted to be on the prosecution, or the Norths side. I was chosen to be prosecuting attorney, which I thought would make the assignment even easier for me. Also, there were other students that I could assign to do the research. I learned after the first week that being the attorney wasnt as easy as I had anticipated. When I started getting research papers back from the students, I found that I had to do extensive research into these areas myself in order to completely understand them. I started learning facts about the South that would indicate that they were to blame for the war. But then I found some facts about the North that would prove that they were to blame for the outburst of the war. I began researching deeper into the reasons why the North had acted the way they did toward the South, and the way the people of the South made their living. I went into deeper research in order to get all possible facts about the South and also to find all possible facts about the North, so as to figure out an argument that would justify the acts of the North. In so doing I though that this would enable me to win my case in court After the two sides had all of their research done we decided to begin the trial. The trial had begun when I called my first witness. The trial went smoothly for the first hour, and for the most part, turned out in my favor; but my opponents had brought up a few points that I hadnt heard of yet. About this time we adjourned until the next day. So this enabled me to look into the facts that I had not found. The following day began with the defense calling their first witness. After a while I started losing ground. My opponent had begun to comer me into areas that I hadnt even thought about Near the middle of his case, I brought out a point that I had been saving. This gave me more confidence and I thought that my time had finally come to wrap up the case. But out of the clear blue, he threw something at ' me that I had never heard erf before. This point, or fact that he stated was enough for him to ruin my case and for him to win it. It wasnt until after I had lost, that I found that they had changed the wording of this and other facts making it sound different than it really was. By doing this it enabled him to win his case. The one thing I learned, as far as history goes, is that the Civil War was not anything like I had thought it to be for so many years. I had not been aware of the political unrest, and intrigue, that existed between the North and the South. All the decisions made in government pertained to the North as well as the the South; but it affected the South to .the extent that they could not continue their way of life without losing a good portion of their income. I cannot write in brief all of the things I learned, as pertaining to the history part of it; but I learned more by studying this way than I ever would have learned by studying my text only and waiting for a test or examination. In the way we did it I had an incentive to study because I didnt want to lose. As it happened, because I cut my studying short, I lost. I feel that the most important things I learned were the proceedings of the court or the trial itself: the rules and regulations of the courts, that I didnt realized existed until I went into the court room; the way the Judge must make the decisions and how I had to be constantly aware of the way my opponent questioned the witness, and know the proper way and time to make objections in order to be recognized by the judge, so that I may give my opinion on the question at hand. I learned in these proceedings that I must never over look facts that I do not think are important; because I must be ready for a time that my opponent may twist these facts around and make them sound important. But all in all, it has been a great learning experience for me. I benefitted from this in so many ways that I will never forget it. It made me realize that the court systems in this country are not quite as perfect as I had thought them to be. There are many parts or rules of our Courts that could make it possible for a good lawyer to send an innocent man to pay for a crime, or for a guilty man to be set free. But when this countrys Constitution was written, they said to form a more perfect union. It did not say to form the perfect union. This makes me want to try in the ways I can to one day make it the perfect system, or at least, a better one. If we all can take an interest and try, in later years, the flaws in our countrys system will be sought out and corrected fa such a way that the generation after my generation will have a better way of life. This mock trial has given me the incentive to try and cany out this goaL I am just one person, but everything had to start with at least one before it could begin to grow larger.
