Opening Statement Presentations at the Academy




This morning I conducted the final session at the Academy of Advocates for the Fall Semester. We had presentations from six law students, including two for the prosecution and two for the defense. I awarded gift tee shirts for all presenters, but reserved special prizes for the top prosecution and top defense presenters. These were a "Prosecutor's White Hat" and a "Defendant's Black Stocking Cap." Taisia won the top award for the Prosecution and Oleg for the Defense, although there were several other presentation that could easily have won. Other presenters included Alexander, Stanislav, Viktor and Aleksay.


My experience at the Academy has been outstanding. The faculty has provided great support, with two professors in attendance for each session. The student presentations have been outstanding. I look for great things from this group in the future.
