MOCK TRIAL COMPETITION:                          
WLA has supported the San Luis Obispo County Mock Trial Competition since its inception. The Competition pairs local high school student trial teams with volunteer attorney and teacher coaches in a mock trial exercise exploring current legal issues in the context of a mock criminal trial. WLA assists the program by helping to defray the costs associated with the program operations.
