Federal Rules of Evidence with Practice Problems

This text is an essential complement to Arthur Best’s casebook, Evidence: Practice, Problems, and Rules, Second Edition. The practice problems provide students with an opportunity to apply their knowledge of Evidence rules and doctrines in a variety of practice contexts. New to the 2021 Edition: - Federal Rules of Evidence, as amended December 1, 2020
- Text of newly-amended Rule 807
- Advisory Committee Notes and Legislative History
- Trial preparation problems that present particular evidence issues in seven different practice settings; they call for the drafting of motions or memos that lawyers would typically prepare to deal with them in advance of trial
- Extensive in-trial problems that follow the transcript of a hypothetical trial, with evidence issues arising in a somewhat unpredictable order that reflects actual trial practice
