Evidence: The California Code and the Federal Rules, A Problem Approach (American Casebook Series)

Uses transcripts of witness examinations to help students visualize the process of presenting and objecting to evidence, and help them understand the rules in practice as well as in theory. Combines the problem and witness examination approach with text, not cases, that sets out the law of evidence in a clear and concise manner. Discusses major cases as well as the policies and concepts underlying the rules, not just the rules themselves. Includes at the end of each chapter the text of the Code sections and Rules discussed in that chapter.
