- November 23, 2015
Three judges preside over court cases, asking the lawyers for both sides questions about the evidence. The cases are real, but the courtroom is a TV set and the judges are not official.However, the cases being heard are community-organized to promote fairness in court cases where there is an unmet need.Is the evidence against a drug dealer who was caught operating a meth lab in a cave underground where he was squatting lawful?Seller says he does not know what was in the women's bags because he was working at the time of the search and seizure.Respondent admits it was his cave but denies that the police had probable cause for the search that resulted in the seizure of a massive amount of methamphetamine.In his opening statement, the plaintiff claims to be the owner of a store that was robbed of $10,000 in cash and more than $20,000 in merchandise.The prosecution believes the defendant violated the community by making large-scale social media sales of counterfeit branded sports merchandise.In the second case, the second plaintiff presents evidence that she and her daughter were stranded on the side of the highway for hours after the defendant verbally agreed to tow her vehicle to a nearby service station.Close examination of the car by opposing counsel reveals that significant wear and tear suggests the vehicle had not been in storage, as the defendant claimed.
