RJG Associates Volunteer as Jurors for the 2020 PBA Young Lawyers Division Mock Trial Competition

PBA Mock Trial - RJG

On Tuesday, January 28, associates Nick Marinelli and Christyan Telech of our Business & Finance Department, and Rob Gawlas and TJ Jensen of our Litigation Department, volunteered as jurors for the 2020 PBA Young Lawyers Division Mock Trial Competition.

The Mock Trial Competition runs throughout the state, and local high school teams from Luzerne and Schuylkill counties participate in simulated trials at the Luzerne County Courthouse, in which local judges preside over the “case.” Jurors score the teams based on PBA-established criteria and the teams compete to advance to the Pennsylvania state finals held in Harrisburg on March 27th and 28th.

The winner of the Pennsylvania competition advances to the National Championship in Evansville, Indiana in May. Our firm is proud of the efforts of our associates in participating in this great event and congratulates the Young Lawyers Division and all of the participants in the event.
