PREAMBLE
The purpose of mock trial is to educate the youth of America about our legal system, our jurisprudence and the work of our attorneys. To that end
the educational function in all of our activities is primary and any competitive aspect of mock trial is secondary. The ideals of fairness, civility
and justice should guide our actions.
The Midlands Rules of Court shall apply to all trials, civil and criminal, held in any court in the State of Midlands. The Midlands Rules of Court are the official rules of court for all mock trial tournaments sanctioned by the American Mock Trial Association.
