These instructional materials involve secondary students in simulating a criminal trial concerning teenage drinking. Included are all materials necessary for participation in the 1984 California Mock Trial Competition. Part I of the document describes a hypothetical situation involving a high school senior who faces state felony charges for leaving the scene of an accident where another person has been injured. The driver had been drinking on the night of the accident. Discussion questions are provided. Part II, which makes up the bulk of the publication, develops the hypothetical situation and provides all materials necessary for presentation of the mock trial. Included are discussions of the form and substance of a criminal trial, role descriptions, a time sheet, procedures for presenting the case, rules of evidence summary, a judge's rating sheet, case materials, and classroom exercises. Part III contains materials and procedures for the preparation of a pre-trial motion on an important constitutional issue--the conflict between freedom of the press and the right to a fair public trial by an impartial jury. Tips on how to use a law library are also included. (RM)
