The AMTA postseason field is now complete, and can be viewed on the earned bids sheet on the tabulation page.

All open bids have been distributed, and it is not anticipated that any more will be given out this year.

Good luck to all teams participating in the Opening Rounds of our Championship Series!

[NOTE: A second revised version has been posted @ 8:45pm on 3/1. The earlier correction was off by one day; the new version corrects that error.]

An error was discovered in the Charney affidavit after the 2/28 case changes had been issued. The error involved an unintended discrepancy between the date ranges for various stages of blow fly development and Charney's date-of-death conclusion.

A revised version of the Charney affidavit, a corrected case binder, and a revised change log incorporating the Charney changes have been posted to the AMTA site.

Case changes for the ORC tournaments have been posted. The PDF of the entire case includes all changes. The change log for 2/28 listed in the case documents details all changes. Individual documents that have been changed are indicated by a "2.28 revision" comment below the link.

As of Friday morning, both the Princeton and Jamaica regionals will proceed as scheduled. Although St. John's (Jamaica) is closed for classes, it will be open for the regional tournament. AMTA will continue to post updates if circumstances change.

Teams should exercise their own judgment with regard the safety of traveling in inclement weather. Teams that are unable to travel should contact the tournament host immediately. AMTA will waive penalties for teams that must withdraw from the tournament due to unsafe travel conditions.

Questions or notices may be directed to the AMTA office, the tournament hosts or AMTA President Sara Zeigler at slzeigler@gmail.com

The Criminal Case Committee does not intend to release any new witnesses prior to ORCS because of the unusually short period between the last regional and first ORCS tournaments.

The Committee plans to release a limited set of changes after the final regional tournament for use at ORCS, and expects to issue further changes after ORCS for use at the National Championship Tournament.

The Co-Chairs of the Criminal Case Committee are Jason Butler(jasonbutlerlaw@hotmail.com) and Tom Parker (thomas.parker@eku.edu).
