The Ithaca College Mock Trial Team is a competition-based organization that combines elements of the law, public speaking, and performance. Each year, the team receives a case from the American Mock Trial Association (AMTA) and uses those materials to prepare a case which they will present against other teams from around the country.
During the 2025-2026 season the team participated in three tournaments: in Buffalo, Rochester, and Utica.
