Additional Information
The University of Wyoming College of Law will host the fourth annual Spence Law Firm Historic Trial on Tuesday, March 27, 2018 at 6:00 p.m. in the College of Law Large Moot Court Room.
The College of Law, with collaboration from the Spence Law Firm, created the annual Historical Trial as a fun and interesting way to learn about important historical events through a legal lens, while also providing law students a way to simulate a trial of a high profile case.
This year’s trial will put Captain Meriwether Lewis and his expedition subordinate, Private Silas Goodrich, on trial for the theft of a canoe from the Clatsop Tribe during the famed Lewis & Clark Expedition.
The mock trial is free and open to the public. An overflow room with a live stream of the trial will be provided in the event of high occupancy. Refreshments will be provided at the break. For further inquiries, please contact Christine Reed at the College of Law Christine.reed@uwyo.edu.
