General Information
Due October 15, 2007
24th Annual Intercollegiate Mock Trial Season

Your institution is not registered until this form is completed and all fees are paid. (Unless you are a new school, before registering please check with Susan Ewing at the AMTA office, amta@dwx.com, to see if your school has a credit or an outstanding debt from the previous year.)

Institutional registration covers individual registration fees for all student participants, educator-coaches and attorney coaches.

Please note that rules changes adopted in 2007 limit programs to two teams per regional. Programs may register as many teams as they like, but only two teams may compete at a single regional. Additional teams will be assigned to other regionals. Please note any conflicts (including institutional requirements that a faculty member accompany the teams) on the form.

Educator Coach/Primary Contact
AMTA Rules state a team must have official sanction from its college/university to compete. Normally, this is established by the presence of an Educator-Coach who is a faculty/staff member. Under unusual circumstances, a team may compete without an Educator-Coach if it submits a letter on official stationery signed by the President, Provost/Vice- President for Academic Affairs, or Academic Dean indicating the team has institutional sanction to compete and explaining why no faculty/staff member can be designated as the Educator-Coach/Primary Contact. The Educator-Coach will receive all AMTA correspondence and AMTA will accept bid reservations and other official communications only from the designated Educator-Coach or institutionally-sanctioned primary contact person. Only one person may serve as Educator-Coach/Primary Contact. All teams are expected to furnish one adult volunteer at Regional and National Tournaments to judge or help with administration.

Please take care to register the number of teams that you will actually have competing at regionals. Registrations will be accepted after October 15, 2007, only on a space-available basis. Teams that register late may not be able to compete in the same regional as timely registered teams from the same program and may have to travel a substantial distance to compete.

No credits will be given for regional cancellations after October 15, 2007. Note that this deadline is earlier than in past seasons. If you must cancel a registration at any time, please notify us as soon as possible so that we can adjust regional assignments.

Penalties apply for drops and/or cancellations as follows:

• $50 for teams that drop within 30 days of the start of the tournament, but more than 14 days in advance of the start of regional tournament
• $100 for teams that drop within 14 days but more than 48 hours before the regional tournament
• $200 for teams that drop within 48 hours of the start of the tournament but more than 24 hours before the start of the regional tournament
• $350 for teams that drop within 24 hours of the start of the tournament, but provide proper notice before the registration period for the tournament begin
• $500 for teams that fail to show for the regional tournament or that leave the tournament early without permission of the AMTA Representative
