Mock courts can also be referred to as simulated trials, pretend courtrooms, or fictional legal proceedings. Another term commonly used is moot court, which mimics the actual court experience but is often used in educational settings. Additionally, mock trials or trial simulations can mimic actual legal proceedings, but with the purpose of preparing participants for future court appearances or legal careers. Simulated litigation is another term that may be used to describe these types of practices. Whatever terminology is used, mock courts provide valuable learning experiences for those involved and allow for practice and preparation in a controlled environment.
