Caucasus University and Legis Academy invite students of the Caucasus University School of Law to take part in a large-scale project the Spring 2026 season.

Would you like to step into the role of a prosecutor, defense lawyer, or juror?

This project offers a unique opportunity to transform theoretical knowledge into practical experience through participation in a mock criminal trial based on a high-profile case.

Throughout the project, participants will:

• gain insight into the structure of criminal proceedings;
  • assume the roles of prosecutor, defense lawyer, witness, and juror;
  • work on the materials of a high-profile criminal case — the Khorava Street murder case;
  • explore the distinctive features of authentic investigative records;
  • with the guidance of mentors, learn how to develop legal strategy, prepare witnesses effectively, and strengthen their practical skills in a focused and meaningful way.
