Description
Written from an advocate's perspective, this guide introduces how the courtroom operates and offers a glimpse into the environment that influences these rulings. Major cases and doctrines are discussed. Examples are given to develop a feel for the context in which a particular evidence problem might arise-and for the language lawyers and judges use to resolve it. Also explores the rationale and purpose behind each rule.
