Codes and Releases

One coach from each team must take responsibility for sharing the Idaho Mock Trial Code of Civility & Ethics and Photo & Video and Activity Participation Releases with everyone associated with the team, including other coaches, team members, courtroom artists, and observers.

Mock trial rules, procedures, and the Idaho Mock Trial Code of Civility & Ethics and Photo & Video and Activity Participation Releases remain in effect throughout the entire competition season. Those who do not follow the rules, procedures, and the Idaho Mock Trial Code of Civility & Ethics and Photo & Video and Activity Participation Releases may be sanctioned up to and including forfeiture or disqualification without a refund of paid fees.

Prior to regional competitions a coach from each team must fill out the online acknowledgement form, indicating your team has read and will abide by the provisions in the Idaho Mock Trial Code of Civility & Ethics and Photo & Video and Activity Participation Releases.
