Trial Practice: Exercises in Witness Examination (American Casebook Series)

Trial Practice: Exercises in Witness Examination and the Rules of Evidence is a remarkable new text designed for Trial Advocacy courses. With special attention paid to the Rules of Evidence, these classroom simulations aim to cultivate students’ skills at witness examination. Concisely written, the author has carefully stripped out non-essential material from the traditional approach to the course, directing attention instead at core trial skills. The text, written in workbook format, contains 35 simulations that allow students and professors to see marked improvement in trial skills throughout the course, and the hands-on format thoroughly engages students in the subject matter while teaching them practical skills required in legal practice.
