Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Laying Foundations and Meeting Objections, Deanne Siemer gives you the questions to ask and the answers to get from your witness so that your exhibits will be admitted in evidence. Set up the foundation for an exhibit and protect against the objections available to your opponent. This text provides easy-to-follow examples for text documents, e-mails, spreadsheets, computer printouts, charts, graphs, maps, diagrams, drawings, computer animations, and more. Never lose an exhibit to your opponent's objection. Make sure you do not miss any of the four elements of foundation: competence of the witness, identification of the exhibit, relevance, and authentication. Each of the elements has specific requirements right from the evidence rules. Keep yourself on firm ground so that each element is met. See how you can separate the objection to foundation from the other objections--hearsay, original document, and policy (undue prejudice, confusion, waste of time)--so that you can respond quickly and effectively when your opponent challenges your exhibit..

Book excerpt: The New York Matrimonial Trial Handbook, by Joel R. Brandes, of the New York Bar, was written for both the attorney who has never tried a matrimonial action and for the experienced litigator. It is not a treatise. It is a how to book for lawyers. This handbook is a companion work to his treatise, Law and the Family New York, 2d (Thomson Reuters Westlaw), which contains extensive coverage of the substantive and procedural law related to matrimonial actions and family court proceedings. The New York Matrimonial Trial Handbook focuses on the procedural and substantive law, as well as the law of evidence, that an attorney must have at his or her fingertips when trying a matrimonial action. It is intended to be an aide for preparing for a trial and as a reference for the procedure in offering and objecting to evidence during a trial. The book deals extensively with the testimonial and documentary evidence necessary to meet the burden of proof. There are thousands of suggested questions for the examination of witnesses at trial to establish each cause of action and requests for ancillary relief, as well as for the cross-examination of difficult witnesses.

This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every trial attorney has a story about “the one that got away,” the objection they should have made. Trials have a lot of moving parts, and unless you are listening for the right words, objectionable questions, answers, or evidence can be admitted in a blink of the eye. Knowing the rules and the technical bases for objections is a start. What you need after that is to understand the words and phrases that trigger an instant analysis of whether a question is objectionable. Federal Rules of Evidence with Cues and Signals for Good Objections identifies the “cues” to listen for when your opponent asks a question or the witness gives an answer. These cues are words or phrases that tell you instantly when you likely have a good objection to oral testimony. When you know the cues, you can object rapidly and successfully. This guide also provides the “signals” that support a useful objection when your opponent tries to get an exhibit admitted in evidence. Has a foundation been laid for that letter? Is it objectionable “lay opinion” when the writer of a document gives his own view of why something happened? With this guide, you won’t have to guess.
