A Moot Trial of Cicero

This event will be livestreamed from the UK Supreme Court on Thursday 26 October 2023.
This year, Cicero is charged with murder and misconduct in public office. He will stand trial for acting illegally in the suppression of the Catilinarian conspiracy when he was Consul in 63 BCE, in particular for procuring the summary execution of five of the Catilinarian conspirators.
The trial will be presided over by Lady Rose (Justice of the Supreme Court). Richard Whittam KC and Kwaku Awuku-Asabre will be acting as counsel for the prosecution, and Ali Bajwa KC and Polly Dyer as counsel for the defence.
Moot trials hosted at the Supreme Court are a tradition of the Classics for All Lawyers Group. Since 2015, Lawyers Group members have gathered at the court to witness the trials of Alexander the Great, Boudica, Socrates, Brutus, Antigone, Verres and Lysistrata.
