Judge & Juror Registration

The Empire Spring Leagues is scheduled for May 17-18 and June 8-9. You can volunteer for one trial or several—it is entirely up to you!

Please carefully review the below message prior to registering. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out; we can be reached at judge@empiremocktrial.org or 646-481-2332.

We are incredibly grateful for your time and desire to serve. 

Your Role

We are looking for volunteers to serve as either a presiding judge or a scoring juror.

• A juror carefully listens to the presentations, scores the trial, and provides written and verbal feedback for the students.
   
• A presiding judge sits on the bench, conducts the proceedings, likely scores the trial (but may not), and provides students with written and verbal feedback. Serving as a presiding judge requires more preparation time than a juror; there are additional materials to review.

If you'd like to preside, we will try our best to honor your preference. But we typically have more people wish to preside than we have spots available. When you register, you'll be able to indicate whether you'd like to serve as a presiding judge or scoring juror.
