Course Description

A study of trial methodology, including jury voir dire, opening statements in jury and bench trials, introduction of proof and pre-trial as well as trial objections to evidence, and delivery of final arguments. Problems in civil and criminal litigation are analyzed, with emphasis upon demonstration of techniques by students in the course. Course is graded S/U.

Since both Georgia Trial Practice (JURI 5031) and Trial Practice (JURI 5040) have significant overlapping subject matter, students are limited to taking only one of these courses.
