Dedication on Full Display: Reflections of a Mock Trial JudgeBy Francis W. Deisinger, Foundation Board Member, State Bar Past President
High School Mock Trial is one of the Wisconsin Law Foundation’s signature programs, which the Foundation fully funds because of your support. It is a key reason that I support the Foundation every year.
In an age when many believe “reality” courtroom television pro-grams portray what actually hap-pens in court, the mock trial pro-gram teaches high school students how our system really works – by doing what lawyers do: try cases firmly grounded in the facts and the law, in front of a neutral arbiter.
Ways to ContributeYour financial contributions to
the Foundation support mock trial. But mock trial also happens because of volunteer contributions of time and hard work: the attorneys on the Mock Trial Writers Commit-tee who prepare case materials; the school faculty and attorney-coaches donating months of preparation to the teams; the organizers and judges at regional tournaments statewide; and the judges and coaches at state finals in Madison.
The volunteers who write the case and attorney-coaches con-tribute an amazing amount of time – their dedication is commendable. But there are also opportunities to donate shorter amounts of time. Each February, the regional tourna-ments need coordinators to make
sure things go smoothly. And all the tournaments need judges.
Dedication in ActionI volunteer as a judge at the
regional tournament at the Federal Courthouse in Milwaukee. This year I was a presiding judge (responsible to keep the trials moving and rule on objections), with two volunteer attorneys as scoring judges.
The dedication on full display is absolutely inspiring, including that of the students – to learn the case, rules of evidence, and trial procedures. During the trials, team members play attorneys, and fact

and expert witnesses, with direct examinations, cross examinations based on prior statements, and documentary evidence.
I did not happen to judge any of the teams that went to the semifinal rounds. It makes the experience more impressive – because the teams that we saw were terrific.
As a young lawyer, I wished I had the presence – and presence of mind – that these students display. Just as important is the respect and decorum the teams show with each

other and the court – despite the spirited competition. Their parents and friends must be very proud.
For many of the students and their audience, this was the first time they had been in a real courtroom. What a wonderful first impression!
Offer Your SupportNext year, when the call goes out
again for volunteers, consider help-ing in whatever capacity you can. I can’t imagine a more gratifying volunteer experience for a lawyer than this terrific program.
Please continue your financial support of the Foundation, so that the mock trial program keeps grow-ing every year. This is one of the best things our profession does to support our local communities and to advance the ideals of the law in action.

Reflecting on a New Mock Trial TeamBy Kori Ashley, 2018 Fellow of the Wisconsin Law Foundation
Some of my fondest memories from law school are the mock trial programs and tournaments. Last year, I had the pleasure of judging high school semifinal matches. It was an amazing experience, but I could not ignore the lack of racial diversity among participants. I made a new goal: to coach a Mil-waukee team, and contribute to the diversity of the mock trial program. I wanted Milwaukee students to benefit from the tremendous skills gained from participating in mock trial.
With attorney-coaches Nadya Reyes Pérez and Ronnie Murray, we formed a team at Golda Meir High School in Milwaukee. Finding team members was our first challenge. We managed to form a team of eight students – short of the usual 10 to 12. Smaller teams face additional challenges: students take on multi-ple roles of attorneys and witnesses for the prosecution and the defense, memorizing the materials for each role.
Despite this challenge, the Golda Meir students gained an impressive ability to switch roles quickly at competition.
Another challenge was simply being new to mock trial – to trial procedure, rules of evidence, the drama involved. Our students lacked the confidence that naturally comes with experience. We started from scratch, building a foundation for future years.
In one word, the experience of be-ing an attorney-coach is refreshing. Young people have a way of keeping you on your toes, reminding you of what’s important, and in a very exit-ing way, making you feel that spark of youth again.
I am proud of my team. They competed against teams with established programs and showed an extraordinary amount of heart. Ultimately, team members gained the necessary confidence to return next year and – I believe – stand an excellent chance at advancing.

Growing Tomorrow’s Future State Bar LeadersBy Dean R. Dietrich, Foundation Treasurer and Past Foundation President
With your generous support, the Wisconsin Law Foundation is fur-thering its mission to find, nurture, and support the leaders of tomor-row.
Increasing the vitality and diver-sity of the State Bar, its members, and the profession is important to the State Bar of Wisconsin and the profession’s future. Your donations support the State Bar of Wisconsin G. Lane Ware Leadership Academy – now in its third year helping law-yers hone their leadership skills to serve both the profession and their communities – and the annual State Bar’s Leadership Summit, which en-courages young lawyers to take up leadership positions with the State Bar or their local bar associations.
G. Lane Ware’s VisionI have very fond memories of
discussions with Lane about the need for the State Bar to plan its leadership succession. As Lane and I advanced in age, we talked often about the State Bar “growing its own” leaders who would guide the profession.
These discussions were a pre-cursor to creating the State Bar of Wisconsin Leadership Development Committee, the Leadership Summit, and G. Lane Ware Leadership Acad-emy. This was part of Lane’s vision to preserve the State Bar’s future.
In 2012, the Leadership Develop-ment Committee created the annual Leadership Summit, where young lawyers are invited to attend a short session that introduces them to the State Bar and its leaders. Thus far, 156 members have participated, with many of them taking up leader-ship positions with the State Bar.
The Leadership Development Committee implemented past president Ralph Cagle’s vision of a training program for developing leadership skills among lawyers of all ages. The Leadership Academy began in 2016, an in-depth, interac-tive, multisession program to learn

leadership skills. Since then, 56 members have participated in the program, with many volunteering in State Bar leadership positions.
All of this is done to grow Lane’s vision – and the Foundation’s mis-sion – to ensure a successful future for the State Bar. The development of leadership skills among lawyers is critical both for the State Bar and for the communities where these lawyers practice.
The Foundation is very proud of what it has done to encourage lawyers to come forward and be leaders within their communities and within the State Bar.

Recognizing David E. Schultz: 40-Plus Years as an Expert on Criminal Jury Instructions
Thanks to David E. Schultz’s ef-forts spanning four decades, citizens serving on Wisconsin juries receive clear and current instructions. De-fendants depend on jurors under-standing their task. Lawyers and judges use them to frame the issues in a case in their pursuit of justice.
These jury instructions are stan-dardized because of the work of the Wisconsin Criminal Jury Instruc-tions Committee and of Schultz, as its reporter of 43 years.
Schultz, U.W. 1972, associate dean and emeritus professor of law at U.W. Law School, will receive the Wisconsin Law Foundation’s 2019 Gordon Sinykin Award of Excel-lence in June. The award recognizes a lawyer, law firm, or group of law-yers for their work on an individual law-related education or public service project.
“I didn't realize who was respon-sible for the ongoing effort that goes into this,” said Gerald M. O’Brien, a member of the award committee and former State Bar of Wisconsin President. “The practicing Bar owes Schultz a great deal.”
“His instrumental contribution to this ongoing project exempli-fies the ideals of service by and for the profession honored by the Sinykin award,” said Fran Deisinger, a member of the award committee and former State Bar of Wisconsin president.
The creation of standard jury instructions is of enormous benefit to lawyers and judges in Wisconsin, and improves the quality of justice for citizens, according to Deisinger.
Dedication and Flawless WorkSchultz’s July retirement ends an
era for jury instructions in Wiscon-sin. He has been training a replace-ment.
The Criminal Jury Instructions Committee of 11 circuit court judges meets six times a year to analyze new court decisions and laws, determine whether those decisions require changes to the jury instruc-tions, and draft jury instructions in lay language.
“It’s very important part of our system of justice,” Schultz said. “And it’s a challenge. The jury needs to understand these instructions when they make these very impor-tant decisions.”
As reporter, Schultz keeps up to date on legislation and appellate decisions, and responds to inqui-ries from lawyers and judges. “His expertise makes him a sought-after authority when questions arise,” said U.W. Law School Dean Marga-ret Raymond. “David's dedication to doing the work flawlessly cannot be overstated: defendants’ lives de-pend on jurors understanding their task, and the instructions serve as a guide.”
Schultz’s work was “absolutely key” for the committee’s productiv-ity, said retired Judge Guy Reynolds. Judge Reynolds served on the jury instruction committee more than six years. “His work, spanning de-cades, is a remarkable achievement,” he said of Schultz.
“He has an encyclopedic knowl-edge of the law and criminal pro-cedure,” said Door County Circuit Court Judge D. Todd Ehlers, who served on the jury instruction com-mittee for the eight years.
In addition to being enjoyable, the work is vital, according to Schultz. “Jury instructions are relied on quite extensively throughout the state, and not just in trials,” he said. Lawyers and judges refer to them to help frame the issues of a case.
“From that respect, I thought it was a good way to have an impact on the profession.”
A Sought-after Authority on Criminal Law
For 25 years, Schultz worked as a member of the Wisconsin Judi-cial Council, serving 1989 to 2015, including as chair 1991-96. “That agency was a very important and effective one. I am very proud of my participation,” Schultz said.
Over the past 38 years, Schultz served as director of CLEW, the U.W. Law School’s continuing legal education program – beginning in the early 1970s when it was housed in the UW-Extension. And at the U.W. Law School, he taught hun-dreds of students from 1992 through 2015. “He is a renowned teacher and authority on criminal law at U.W. Law School,” Raymond said.

• In Tribute of Atty. Amy Wochos (Milwaukee County Clerk of Courts, Milwaukee), from Larry Martin, Executive Director, State Bar of Wisconsin, Madison.
The Wisconsin Idea: A Guiding Principle
Throughout his career, Schultz was guided by the Wisconsin Idea, a commitment by the University of Wisconsin that education is a public service that extends beyond the classroom.
“My career has a heavy emphasis on continuing education and publi-cation, and my work on the criminal jury instructions was a major part of that,” Schultz said. “And working with people outside the university greatly enhances our own under-standing of our areas of interest.”
Having retired from teaching in 2015, Schultz is easing into his July retirement, stepping down as direc-tor of CLEW and as reporter for the Criminal Jury Instruction Commit-tee.
He is humbled by the Founda-tion’s recognition. “It is gratifying,” Schultz said, “to be among the wor-thy past recipients of the award.”
Who was Gordon Sinykin? Gordon Sinykin served as Foun-
dation president in the mid-1970s, and on the board and Executive Committee until his death in 1991. He was a leader in the foundation’s fundraising efforts for the Lawyer Hotline, Mock Trial, and other major programs.

A young Rhinelander attorney was recently recognized in the local press after receiving a Belle Case La Follette Award from the Foundation last year.
The awards further the Founda-tion’s mission of improving the administration of justice. They are given to new lawyers who represent clients whose legal needs have been historically unmet, or in under-served communities or rural areas with limited access to legal services.
Nick Cirilli, a 2015 graduate of Western Michigan University Law School, received attention from the Rhinelander Star Journal, in an article published Oct. 17, 2018.
Cirilli, one of three recipients of the Foundation’s $2,100 award in 2018, works as an associate attorney with his father and two uncles at Cirilli Law Offices S.C., in Rhine-lander.
Cirilli provides free initial con-sultations to keep the cost down for his clients. He also takes numerous cases via court appointment, and
from Wisconsin Judicare, because there are few low-cost options for obtaining legal advice available in Wisconsin’s Northwoods.
“All attorneys have some obliga-tion to do something to help those who can’t afford it,” Cirilli said in the article. You can read more about Cirilli at bit.ly/2FNWGGi.
