During her time at the National Center for Child Traumatic Stress\, Emma served the researchers\, child psychiatrists\, and community providers working to raise the standard of care and improve access to services for traumatized children\, their families and communities throughout the United States. Emma has also previously served as a Restorative Dialogue Facilitator in Wake County public schools. \nEmma graduated from Queen’s University Belfast in 2017 with a Bachelor of Arts in Politics and\, in 2018\, with a Master of Arts in Conflict Transformation and Social Justice. \nFor more information or if you have differing abilities and need an accommodation to participate in this program\, please contact Carla Huff\, Carla.Huff@nccourts.org\, 919-354-7207 or 919-888-0984.

SUMMARY:2025 Defender Trial School
DESCRIPTION:The 2025 Defender Trial School\, co-sponsored by the School of Government and the North Carolina Office of Indigent Defense Services\, will be held Monday\, July 7 through Friday\, July 11 at the UNC School of Government. \n  \nThe program will offer approximately 29.50 hours of CLE credit\, including one hour of Ethics credit\, and qualifies for NC State Bar criminal law specialization credit. \n  \nParticipants will use their own non-capital cases to develop a cohesive theory of defense at trial and apply that theory through all stages of a criminal trial\, including voir dire\, opening and closing arguments\, and direct and cross-examination. \n  \nPARTICIPANTS \nThe Defender Trial School is open to public defenders and\, space permitting\, private attorneys who perform a significant amount of appointed work. \n  \nBecause space is limited at the Trial School\, public defenders must receive approval from their Chief Public Defender prior to registering. You do not need to send us anything formal from your chief defender\, but please obtain approval before registering. \n  \nATTENDANCE \nUnlike other programs\, you need to attend all of the sessions. The sessions build on one another\, and by the end of the program\, you will have developed a comprehensive strategy for trying your case. \n  \nLOCATION\, DATES\, AND TIMES \nThe program will be held Monday\, July 7\, through Friday\, July 11\, at the School of Government on the UNC-Chapel Hill campus.

The program will offer approximately 29.5 hours of CLE credit\, including one hour of  Ethics credit\, and qualifies for NC State Bar criminal law specialization credit. \nParticipants will use their own non-capital cases to develop a cohesive theory of defense at trial and apply that theory through all stages of a trial\, including voir dire\, opening and closing arguments\, and direct and cross-examination. \nWe are also excited to inform you that IDS has expanded the number of fellowships (scholarships) available to attend the Trial School. Please review the information below before registering\, including the registration deadlines and the instructions about obtaining a fellowship. \n***LINK TO AGENDA***\nPARTICIPANTS \nThe Defender Trial School is open to public defenders and\, space permitting\, private attorneys who perform a significant amount of appointed work. \nBecause space is limited at the Trial School\, public defenders must receive approval from their Chief Public Defenders prior to registering.
