"With administrative justice, a legal state achieves its true formation." With this quote from Professor Kārlis Dišlers, the European Law Students' Association in Latvia (ELSA Latvia) announced the first national-level administrative court trial simulation, organized in honor of the anniversary of the Administrative Procedure Law's entry into force in 2005. The initial concept developed so successfully that the organizers received applications from more than 30 student teams. After nearly a 10-year hiatus, the Administrative Law court trial simulation was held again in 2014. The goal of the simulation is to offer students the opportunity to experience the atmosphere of a real court trial, both by preparing procedural document samples and defending their position in oral simulations, which are as close to an actual court process as possible. During the oral simulation part, participants are heard and take on the roles of judges, played by recognized legal experts in Latvia
