Summer Intersession or Fall 2013 Initial Class Assignment for:

Criminal Trial Advocacy § B

Instructor: Judge Larry Gist

First class date: Saturday, August 24, 2013

Posting date: Jul 25, 2013 @ 10:29:23

Instructions:

Please bring the State v. Chambers Casebook to the first class.
Assignments will be made at our first class for the rest of the 
semester.  All exercises will be filmed and available online for 
your review.

Wear casual clothes to class.  Be prepared to make a 3 minute 
presentation to the class at our first meeting.  The presentation 
can involve any topic or your personal background that will get and 
keep everyone's attention, and be persuasive as to why everyone 
should like and trust you.

This class is all about tactics, strategy and preparation. So be 
humorous if that fits, or serious, or some of both.  Three minutes 
doesn't seem very long but it will feel like a ifetime.

We are going to learn how to make people like, respect and trust us, 
and how to win in the courtroom.  

I look forward to meeting everyone and sharing this semester with 
you.

Judge Larry Gist
