Our Mock Trial Team Is Gearing Up For Their Season Starting This Week.
This year’s case is about a Senior Lacrosse Captain from Frostburg who attended a concert and participated in the mosh pit and crowd surfing. The plaintiff, Chris Walken Williams, left the concert a quadriplegic and is suing the venue for negligence, though the accounts vary as to what exactly happened. The trials are held on Tuesdays at the Frederick County Courthouse and begin promptly at 5:00pm. If you would like to attend, you MUST be in the courthouse before 5:00pm to get through security. The building is locked at 5:00 and no one is allowed in after that point. The trials are held on the 3rd floor in the District Courtrooms. See Ms. Smith for more details!!!
