Register to enter the GHSMTC COURTROOM ARTIST contest!
Only individual high school students may register. Contestants DO NOT have to attend a high school with a mock trial team competing this season. Any high school student is eligible to compete.
This competition is intended for artistically talented students to participate in the Guam mock trial program. Contestants will create a drawing of the courtroom scene during a Round (mock trial match) to be scheduled by the State Coordinator (Joleen Respicio). Only registered students will be scheduled to compete.
Judges will select one winner in this contest by the end of the season (early Spring 2026) to represent Guam alongside the champion mock trial team at the National High School Mock Trial Championship (NHSMTC) in Des Moines, Idaho from May 7 - 9, 2026. Please visit the NHSMTC Courtroom Artist Contest for more information on the national contest. PLEASE NOTE the same COURTROOM ARTIST CONTEST RULES apply to the Guam contest, with some exceptions. Please refer to the Guam Rules of the Competition ARTICLE 12.
Please email any questions to Joleen Respicio at jrespicio@guamcourts.gov. More information will follow registration.
There is no registration fee. Please register no later than September 26, 2025.
