My name is Annie Wang, and I serve as the tournament director for the Yale Mock Trial Association. It is my pleasure to invite you to judge the 15th Annual Yale Mock Trial Invitational Tournament to be held Saturday and Sunday, December 4 and 5, 2010 at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut.
As a law-related student organization, we are a certified provider of CLE credits to attorneys in New York and Connecticut. For just a few hours of your time, you would be able to earn 3 CLE credits free of charge. No experience in mock trial is necessary.
Included in this invitation, each attorney would receive:
1. Complimentary breakfast and lunch during the tournament
2. Three free CLE credits
3. Networking opportunities with dozens of attorneys from New York and Connecticut
If you are interested in judging, please register on our website as soon as possible: http :// www . yale . edu / mocktrial / judges . html
This prestigious tournament includes 48 teams from across the country, and the success of this and all our tournaments depends on the generosity of legal professionals such as yourself who donate their time and energy each year.
This year, the rounds will be as follows:

The Yale Mock Trial Association depends on the generosity of volunteers like you for the success of this event, and we would greatly appreciate any help you could provide.
