* Open to all (no prior registration is necessary).

* As legal apprentices, you will be required to conduct interrogations yourselves during the practical prosecutor training. Many of you may be feeling anxious, wondering, "How do I conduct an interrogation?" Therefore, in the mock interrogation session, we will have several participants experience conducting an interrogation in the role of a prosecutor. Afterward, we will hold a Q&A session between all participants and the prosecutor instructors to help you get a better idea of what an interrogation entails. Additionally, during the guidance session, the prosecutor instructors will discuss the content of the apprenticeship, the proper mindset, and answer your candid questions about the training, such as "Is attending an autopsy mandatory?" Therefore, we encourage all successful candidates to feel free to attend, regardless of whether you aspire to become a prosecutor .

* After the session, we plan to hold a social gathering (fee: approx. 3,000 yen) attended by prosecutor instructors and alumni of our LS who are newly appointed prosecutors . Those who wish to attend the social gathering are requested, for venue booking purposes, to do so by 5:00 PM on Monday, September 30 .
