In State v. Anderson, when defendant Raymond Anderson resolves a fender bender by beaning Wayne Henkel with a baseball bat and stealing his truck, the State charges Anderson with assault with a deadly weapon and robbery. Anderson's prior conviction for first degree burglary throws him a curveball by invoking the State's "three strikes law," making another conviction a mandatory state prison case and doubling Anderson's likely sentence. After the first trial ends in a hung jury, the State retries the case. Anderson refines the student's advocacy and examination skills through this full trial, which includes visual aids and video testimony, head trauma experts, and a lineup of witnesses going to bat for the State and Anderson.

The Plaintiff, Jeffrey B. Lang, seeks to recover damages based upon a claim that the defendant, Jennifer L. Anderson, owner of Mr. Gatsby's Restaurant, by serving and selling alcoholic beverages to Butch Turner, caused the intoxication of Butch Turner, and that Butch Turner injured the plaintiff while in this intoxicated condition. The defendant denies that, as a result of beer consumed at Mr. Gatsby's Restaurant, Butch Turner became intoxicated. The defendant claims that the plaintiff provoked the fight with Turner. The defendant asserts that she, therefore, is not liable for the plaintiff's injuries. This file is intended to be used for a bench trial or a short jury trial. The trial may be limited to the issue of liability; however, adequate materials are included to allow the issue of damages to also be tried. Each side should be permitted to call only two witnesses.

The State of NITA has charged Arthur Jackson and his assistant, Sonia Peterson, with commercial arson. Prosecutors allege that the two conspired with George Avery to burn down the Flinders Aluminum Fabrication factory. The original trial resulted in a hung jury, after which Sonia Peterson pled guilty to conspiracy to commit a felony and agreed to testify against Arthur Jackson. Jackson maintains his innocence. Avery cannot testify because he died in the fire. There are four witnesses for both the State and the defense.
