Rules of Evidence: A Practical Approach, 2nd Edition

Michael Gulycz, Mary Ann Kelly, Douglas Cochran

Evidence law is a system of complex rules and principles that govern what information should be heard by the trier of fact. Rules of Evidence: A Practical Approach, 2nd Edition teaches students in paralegal and law clerk courses the practical approach to analyzing a fact situation and applying these rules in a logically sequenced manner. The book also addresses strategies for the effective presentation of testimonial and documentary evidence in the context of court and tribunal proceedings.
