My name is Annie Wang, and I serve as the Tournament Director of the Yale Mock Trial Association.
It is my pleasure to invite you to judge the American Mock Trial Association Regional Competition to be held Saturday and Sunday, February 12 and 13, 2011 at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. This competition is the first step for a university team to qualify for the 2011 National Mock Trial Championships.
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
To register, please fill out the form located on our website, http :// www . yale . edu / mocktrial / judges . html
This year, the rounds will be as follows:
Saturday, February 12, 2011
9:00 AM Complimentary Breakfast for Judges
9:50-10:25 AM Judges' Meeting
10:30-1:30 PM Round 1

Complimentary food will be provided to judges before each round at the Judging Orientation. In order to receive CLE credit, attorneys must judge at least one round, and in the past, many of our judges have chosen to evaluate both rounds in a given day. If you are available for multiple rounds, we strongly encourage you to sign up for Sunday, either Round 3 or 4.
If you have questions not answered on our website, please do not hesitate to contact us. Feel free to forward this information to any interested colleagues. 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.
Thank you,
Annie Wang
