Plaintiff: - The person who files the complaint.

Jury Selection: The judge and attorneys question a number of jurors until theyve all agreed to a complete panel. Questioning is designed to eradicate any jurors that might have a personal bias towards one side of the trial.

Opening Statements: Brief statements are made by both attorneys that outline the facts of the case as they see them. These statements are not taken as evidence, rather they are introductions to what each attorney wants to prove.

Presentation of Evidence: The prosecution goes first by selecting a witness, followed by the defense, and finally, any rebuttals. This is the time to present any physical evidence as well.

Closing Arguments: Very similar to the opening statements in terms of format. Both attorneys give their final arguments to the jury. The prosecutor goes first, then the defending attorney, and finally, any rebuttal the prosecutor has against the defenses remarks.

Jury Deliberations: The judge tells the jury which particular law they must address. Jurors decide a verdict outside of the courtroom in secret. They reveal the verdict through the jury foreman whos chosen by the entire jury.

Active Reading- pages 52-67 (Stop at the bottom of page 55) Explain Drummonds rationale behind the statement, it takes a very smart fella to say I dont know the answer!.

(Stop at the bottom of page 66) Describe the sermon scene. What are your opinions on this particular scene? Loud, aggressive, heated, attacking non-believers (Stop at the end of the scene) Why does Brady stop Brown? What does the quote, He that troubleth his own houseshall inherit the wind, mean?

(Stop at the end of the scene) What does Drummond imply with his last statement to Brady? Do you think it has any impact on Brady? Why or why not?
