Although no winners were selected, every student received feedback from a practicing lawyer or a judge. Leading up to the submission of their statements, participants had access to message boards dedicated to a number of discussion topics. An \u201cAsk a Lawyer\u201d forum was also available, where questions from students and teachers were answered by lawyer volunteers from across Ontario.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OBA lawyer volunteers also recorded a video of themselves conducting Direct and Cross Examinations of each witness from the R v Kaye case scenario. The video was posted on the OJEN website for students to refer to when preparing their Closing statements.\u00a0 It will remain on the website as a resource for OOCMT participants in the future. Students will be able to see how real lawyers conduct witness examinations, and teachers can use it as a resource for their classes. <a href=\"https:\/\/ojen2024.turnbull.co\/en\/oocmt\/r-v-kaye-challenge\">Check out the video here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Congratulations to all the students and teachers who participated in the Challenge under very difficult circumstances!&nbsp; You did excellent work!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Special thanks too, to all the lawyers who volunteered and made the experience so rewarding for the student participants!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The OBA\/OJEN Criminal Law Challenge (OOCLC) \u2013 which replaced the canceled OBA\/OJEN Competitive Mock Trial (OOCMT) tournaments \u2013 was based on the facts of the OOCMT case, R v Kaye.&nbsp; The new format allowed students, who were already familiar with the scenario, to engage with the law around the case.
