Mock Trials with the 17th Judicial Circuit

Students from thirteen local schools participated in a mock trial competition beginning on Friday, February 2, 2024 at the 17th Circuit courthouse. American Heritage and Fort Lauderdale High exceled as the two remaining schools who competed in finals.


The finals resulted in American Heritage as the winning team who will be moving on to the state level of the competition later this year. The 17th Circuit extends our appreciation to St. Thomas Benjamin L. Crump College of Law for having 40 of its law student’s volunteer as jurors for the mock trial.
