2026 3L Student Practice Act Internship
Arapahoe County Government 4.2
Centennial, CO jobs
**Job Number:** 321 **Salary:** $21/hour **Department/Office:** District Attorney **Division:** District Attorney's Office **Job Type** : Temporary
**The Arapahoe County government serves its communities in ways both obvious and obscure. As the beating heart of local and regional government, we're here for our neighbors on their best days-and their worst. We share our residents' goals of preserving our quality of life and strive to be the place we're proud to call home.**
**GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF JOB:**
The 3L Student Practice Act (SPA) Internship Program receives law student applicants who will have completed two full years of law school prior to their internship start date. The SPA internship program is the first step towards a career as a prosecutor within the DA's Office.
**Unparalleled Experience**
Our SPA Internship program provides hands-on courtroom experience in the prosecution of criminal cases under supervision. Interns appear in court to argue motions and sentencing matters, conduct jury trials, and negotiate plea dispositions with defense counsel and self-represented defendants. Responsibilities include participation in all phases of trial practice, including voir dire, opening and closing statements, and direct and cross-examinations. In addition, interns review active criminal cases, consult with victims, and negotiate plea offers, with full-year interns typically conducting an average of 13 jury trials prior to licensure
**Future Investment**
Upon completion of the SPA internship program in May, we look to extend job offers to deserving interns prior to taking and passing the bar. Unlike many other offices, we do not wait until after bar results to offer employment to deserving interns. Once these SPA interns who have been offered employment take and pass the bar, they have a job waiting for them. In the past 6 years, 92% of interns who completed a year in our SPA internship program were offered a job with our office before they graduated law school.
**Training**
We designed our SPA internship program to equip our interns with the skills and knowledge to seamlessly step into a full criminal caseload and try jury trials solo the day they pass the bar. In addition to the extensive experience each SPA intern gets handling real criminal cases, we provide weekly trainings, daily guidance and supervision from deputy district attorneys in the courtroom, and one-to-one mentorship from the County Court Chief Deputy District Attorney. Our Chiefs are seasoned trial attorneys, experienced in handling some of the highest profile cases in the state, and versed in cutting edge trial presentation and technology.
**Part of Our Team**
Our SPA interns are NOT an afterthought, crammed together into a cubicle, using shared computers, and excluded from opportunities afforded deputy district attorneys.

Issues arising out of county court (traffic and misdemeanor cases) are briefed in the District Court.
+ Deputies spend a considerable amount of time in court and professional judgment is critical. This includes but is not limited to trying cases and establishing that elements of a crime have been proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Trials consist of jury selection, opening statements, direct and cross examination of witnesses, and closing arguments. Interns are expected to demonstrate appropriate demeanor and professionalism in court.
+ Interns research and respond to a wide variety of defense motions, including motions for the suppression of evidence. This also involves preparing motions on behalf of the People.
**REQUIREMENTS:**
Skills, Abilities and Competencies:
+ Ability to advocate legal and factual scenarios in a clear and persuasive manner to judges and jurors.
+ Ability to rapidly assess cases for strengths versus weaknesses and aggravators versus mitigators to determine just and ethical dispositions that are within policies promulgated by the District Attorney.
+ Ability to recognize situations warranting potential policy/procedure exceptions, and the ability to effectively advocate for alternative resolutions.
+ Ability to react quickly and appropriately in court to defense objections, oral motions, court inquiries and rulings, and presentations/responses from defense attorneys and witnesses.
+ This position involves the ability to effectively process and dispose of a high volume of criminal case filings while maintaining a balance of equal justice between victims, the People of the State of Colorado, and affected defendants.
+ Ability to establish and maintain effective working relationships with superiors, co-workers, defense attorneys, prose defendants, victims, witnesses, judges, court staff, law enforcement and related agencies' personnel, press/media
