Assignment:
ETHICS
Trial practice is dramatically di?erent in Britain. The lawyers for the two sides, called solicitors, do not go into court. Courtroom work is done by different lawyers, called barristers. The barristers are not permitted to interview any witnesses before trial. They know the substance of what each witness intends to say but do not rehearse questions and answers, as in the United States. Which approach do you consider more e?ective? More ethical? What is the purpose of a trial? Of pretrial preparation?
