Bay Ridge
Order, order in the court
Let the record show that Xaverian’s Mock Trial team slamed the competition and won its second mock-trial debate at Brooklyn Federal Court on March 5.
Moderator Richard Montalbano detailed before the court the case of People of the State of New York vs. Penn HydrasGas, Inc. and Mitchell Tomely, CEO.
The written memorandum of law was more than 20 pages of evidentiary rules and more than 50 pages of testimony, evidence, and related case law.
But that did not deter the team, comprised of Kevin Savarese ’14, Daniel Loud ’14, Michael Calza ’14, Marc Calza ’17, Patrick Coen ’14, Frank Coen ’16, Matthew Lamattina ’15, Christopher Cali ’14, Chrisopher Russo ’14, John Freeze ’14, Matthew Maldonado ’14, and Joshua Previl ’14.
The budding legal eagles put in countless hours of hard work and developed an exceptional case for both sides of the issue. Additional moderators included William Neri ’00, Joseph Mancino, and Christopher Freeze P’10,’14, G’13.
