Mock Trial (Criminal) - The Case of the Stolen Pocket Watch
This mock trial is based upon the old Irish folk song, The Black Velvet Band. It takes 3-5 class hours to complete. Because the mock trial involves drinking, I've included some civics/health lessons on how easily a person can become intoxicated by alcohol as part of the trial.
The basic story is a guy goes to a bar with his buddy to drink and he is caught with a stolen pocket watch and sent to prison. The song has a number of variations, depending upon who is singing it. In some cases, the guy

Mock Trial (Civil case) The Case of the Flaming Brake Pads
The scenario is this: After a serious accident, parents of a disabled child have decided to sue four different “responsible” parties to the accident. All four parties have agreed to hold the trial in a single case, so there are four different defendants in the case. The different defendants are often at cross-purposes, so it doesn't amount to a four-against-one case for the plaintiff. The plaintiff's attorneys are charged with winning at least a $10 million judgment for their clients.
