SACRAMENTO and REDDING 2022 OPEN DOORS
This year the Robert T. Matsui Federal Courthouse hosted Open Doors to Federal Courts virtually for C.K. McClatchy High School and in Redding for Foothill High School.
Students held a mock trial with judges from the federal bench. Assisted by federal attorneys from the U.S. Attorney's Office and the Federal Defender's Office, students litigated a criminal case involving a student alledgely cheating on a college entrance exam and charged with mail fraud.
Following the students deliberations and rendering their verdicts, the students heard from a few career speakers.
